The National Monuments Service's description
Pre-development testing in 2004 revealed a sub-circular ditch feature (Diam. c. 30m 100m). Sections across the ditch showed up seven fills representing alternate episodes of silting and slumping. The site had rounded ditch terminals and a metalled pathway through the entrance on the N side of the site. There were three to four substantial post-holes inside the ditch at the entrance. Surviving internal features included rubbish pits and linear features. Artifacts include a fragment of lignite bracelet, a copper-alloy stick pin and a socketed iron object. The exact location of this monument is unknown.
