The National Monuments Service's description
Located within a pasture field, cropmarks indicate the presence of subsurface remains of a circular enclosure. The circular enclosure (diam. c.30m) visible on Google maps imagery (June 2018) is defined by a ditch (wth. c. 2.5m). Other cropmarks indicate associated activity within and to the east of the enclosure.
