The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a high rise in a rocky area. Listed as 'Enclosure' in the SMR (1992) and the RMP (1996). On inspection in 1998 this was found to be a small D-shaped enclosure (diam. c. 27m) defined by a stone wall of apparently modern construction with an animal pen attached at SE.
