The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in an undulating coarse pasture within a very extensive area of field systems, enclosures and trackways (CL008-004001-; CL008-109001-). Indicated as a small hachured circular feature on the OS 1840 OS 6-inch map and indicated on the 1916 edition by a solid line. A circular enclosure (int. diam. 12m) defined by a drystone wall (Wth 1.4m at NW, 1.05m elsewhere; H 0.25m over external ground level), largely collapsed, with many cattle-gaps. The interior is level and featureless.
