The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, in the SE corner of a large field c. 185m SE of a levelled enclosure (KE020-038----). Depicted on the 1st ed. (1841) OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular area (25m N-S; 22m E-W) enclosed by a bank. A field boundary, on a NW-SE axis, is depicted running tangentially to arc of bank at NE. Two further field boundaries are shown abutting the enclosure at SSW and W respectively. The enclosure is not depicted on later OS map editions.
