The National Monuments Service's description
On a gentle SW-facing slope in reclaimed pasture. Hachured on the 1842 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. This almost levelled suboval enclosure (c. 26m WNW-ESE; c. 20m NNE-SSW) is defined by a low bank (Wth at N c. 9m; H 0.1-0.2m) and is visible in ortho photographs (OSi MapGenie 2012-2018). There is another enclosure (CL011-025001-) c. 8m to the NW.
