The National Monuments Service's description
Cropmark of circular-shaped enclosure (approx. diam. 35m) visible on Google Earth aerial photograph taken 28/06/2018. Faint outline of cropmark visible on Digital Globe aerial photograph. Cropmark of field system of probable post-1700 date in field to E. The linear nature of this field system matches some of the fields depicted on the 1838 ed. OS 6-inch map which suggests that they are post-1700 in date.
