The National Monuments Service's description

OSI orthophoto (2005) shows cropmark of a curvilinear enclosure (dims. c. 41m NW-SE; 32m NE-SW). The W edge of the enclosure is transected by a field boundary running N-S, now visible as a cropmark, with a small field (dims. c. 42m N -S; c. 38m E-W), also visible as a cropmark, running off this field boundary immediately W of the enclosure. There is another enclosure (CW012-221----) immediately E of the curvilinear enclosure.
