The National Monuments Service's description
On a gentle S-facing slope in a karst landscape with some grass cover and within a large multiperiod field system (CL009-059001-). An subcircular enclosure (diam. c. 12m) defined by a grassed-over wall visible on Digital Globe (2011-2013) and reported to the National Monuments Service by Conn Herriott. This is the westernmost of three contiguous monuments. An enclosure or possible barrow (CL009-282----) adjoins this enclosure at E and another enclosure (CL009-283----) is immediately E of that.
