The National Monuments Service's description
In tillage. A roughly trapezoidal enclosure with rounded corners identified as a cropmark on satellite imagery (Google Earth Pro, imagery date 14 July 2018) by Faith Bailey and Simon Dowling. The enclosure (dims. c. 43m E-W; c. 38m N-S at the E end tapering to c. 26m at W end) is defined by fosse and tapers towards the W side. There are two cropmarks indicating possible field boundaries, one running N (L c. 23m) from mid-way along the N side and the other running NE (L c. 22m) from the NE angle.
