The National Monuments Service's description
A D-shaped enclosure (overall diam. c. 40m), identified as the cropmark of a fosse on satellite imagery (Google Earth satellite imagery, 18 July 2021) by Jean-Charles Caillère. Another enclosure (CW008-100----) is conjoined to the SE. The cropmark of a field boundary runs NE-SW between the two enclosures, possibly truncating the fosses.
