In pasture, on level ground. This possible enclosure is not visible at ground level. An arc W-SE of a possible circular enclosure (diam. c. 45m) is visible in an aerial photograph (GSIAP, V 393-4) taken in 1977. There are two burnt spreads (KE066-026001-, KE066-026002-) c. 50m to the NE and c. 30m to the NNW, respectively.
