The National Monuments Service's description
Located in large arable field close to the field’s E boundary, c. 450m WSW of ring-ditch (DU011-111----), cropmarks indicate the presence of a linear arrangement of three ring-ditches aligned roughly N–S. The ring-ditches are visible on Google Earth imagery (24 June 2018). Ring-ditch 3, to the S of the group of three ring-ditches, is circular in plan (ext. diam. c. 11.1m) defined by a ditch (Wth c. 1m). There is no evidence for an entrance gap through the ditch.
