The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture on the NE slope of Brewel Hill. A second ringbarrow (KD032-022----) lay c. 120m to the ENE, a third (KD032-024----) c. 240m to the SE and a fourth (KD032-025----) c. 200m to the S. Described in 1985 as the barely perceptible traces of a low circular area (diam. c. 16m; H above base of fosse c. 0.4m) enclosed by traces of a fosse (SMR file). The monument is no longer clearly identifiable at ground level, but sub-surface features may survive intact.
