The National Monuments Service's description
On the flat floor of the Goul river valley, between two farmyards, in grassland. The enclosing element of this monument has been badly damaged. It has been truncated by a road in the N quadrant, by a farm track in the S quadrant and by farm buildings in the W quadrant. The E quadrant has been damaged by quarrying associated with a lime kiln. A flat area of the interior (dims. c. 25m x 30m; H above road 1.2m) survives, which is level with the external ground level to the S and W.
