The National Monuments Service's description
On a gently N-facing slope in pasture. Hachured on the 1842 and 1920 eds. of the OS 6-inch map. This subcircular enclosure (38m E-W; c. 36m N-S) is defined at WSW-NE by a slight scarp (H 0.4m). The remainder of the perimeter is overlaid by later field boundaries, with short stretches of the scarped edge visible in satellite imagery (MapGenie Imagery 2013-2018) at the SE and SW.
