The National Monuments Service's description

In tillage. A large sub-circular enclosure (dims. c. 74m NE-SW; c. 62m NW-SE) visible as a cropmark on Google Earth (imagery date 14 July 2018) identified and reported by Simon Dowling. A curving field boundary, indicated on the 1st ed. OS 6-inch map, defines the NE-E sector. A field boundary, also visible as a cropmark, runs NW-SE c. 5m NE of the enclosure and may be contemporary with it.
