The National Monuments Service's description
In pastureland. Shown on the 1938 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a subcircular hachured enclosure (c. 25m NW-SE; c. 23m NE-SW). Current aerial imagery (Google Earth 15 April 2020) indicates that it has been levelled. It may have been a ringfort. The monument was brought to our attention by Mr D. Kilner.
