Located in a large arable field, c. 500m NE of another ring-ditch (DU005-092----). The ring-ditch is clearly visible on Apple Maps (June 2018). It comprises an incomplete circular feature (ext. diam. c. 13m) defined by a ditch (Wth c. 1m) that is most clearly visible to the N and S perimeters. Linear ditches, possibly associated, can be seen to the S and W.
