The National Monuments Service's description
On a slight N-S ridge in a valley, in rough pasture. There are fairly good views in all directions. The smaller of two conjoined enclosures. The monument may have been partially levelled between 1839 and 1900 as it is not depicted on the 1900 revision of the OS 6-inch map. Also when visited in 1987 it was not visible at ground level. However, on Digitalglobe satellite image (viewed 16 January 2018) a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) is clearly visible. The smaller enclosure (KK008-094001-) is also visible immediately to the NNW. A field boundary, running roughly E-W immediately S of the enclosure, kinks slightly to accommodate the enclosure.
