The National Monuments Service's description
A circular enclosure visible as a crop mark on an aerial photograph together with other features that could indicate a possible field system (DU005-102----) (SMR file; pers. comm. T. Condit). Located towards base of a hill that slopes from east downwards where it is bounded by the outer relief road. Excavation (08E053, 08E055) of the outer relief road revealed Bronze Age settlement to the west of the enclosure.
