The National Monuments Service's description
Not shown on 1842 and 1904 OS 6-inch maps. Shown on 1937 OS 6-inch map as penannular hachured enclosure (diam. c. 15m). In pasture, on gentle S-facing slope. Circular area (diam. 14m) enclosed by almost levelled bank (H 0.3m). Interior clear; group of stones protrudes above surface off-centre to W; some more stones noted in W half. Possible church (14505) in interior. Bowman (1934, 323) noted 'The surrounding fence has been removed. The site is about 30 yards by 20 yards, and is about 2ft higher than the surrounding field level. Head stones were removed from the burial ground about 30 years ago.' (ibid.).
