The National Monuments Service's description

Located in large arable field close to the field’s N boundary, c. 295m NE of a large cropmark enclosure (DU014-102----), cropmarks indicate the presence of an arrangement of four ring-ditches. The ring-ditches are visible on Google Earth imagery (24 June 2018). This is the westernmost of the four ring-ditches. The ring-ditch (ext. diam. c. 12.8m) is defined by a ditch (Wth c. 1.3m). There is no evidence for an entrance gap through the ditch.
