The National Monuments Service's description
A sub-circular enclosure visible as a crop mark on an aerial photograph. A circular enclosure occurs in the same field to the west (DU004-063----) (SMR file; pers. comm. T. Condit). This site was subject to geophysical survey (05R062) and test excavation (05E1063) which revealed a series of pits and ditches within an enclosing ditch, truncated by intensive agriculture (Lohan , 2005). No visible remains.
