Can anyone locate this please- or any information about it. Have found it shown as an address on the 1841 Census.
Thank you.

Perhaps look either side of the census sheet for other addresses.

Here is a probable mention - it is from a transcription hence the spelling
‘On Stapeley Hill, is Medjibe’s Fold, a Druidical Circle’
https://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/SAL/Chirbury

Is it this, I wonder?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitchell%27s_Fold (in case the page doesn’t show)

‘ Mitchell's Fold (sometimes called Medgel's Fold or Madges Pinfold) is a Bronze Age stone circle in southwest Shropshire, located near the small village of White Grit on dry heathland at the southwest end of Stapeley Hill in the civil parish of Chirbury with Brompton, at a height of 1083 ft (330m) o.d.’
