The National Monuments Service's description
On a gentle ridge in pastureland overlooking lower land to the N and NE. Indicated on the 1922 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular enclosed tree copse (diam. c. 38m). No visible surface trace survives. It was probably an ornamental feature associated with Coole House (GA112-052----).
