The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture. A roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 26m), not indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and shown on the 1900 revision of this map as a circular feature with some trees inside, which is typically how a tree-ring is depicted. On Digitalglobe satellite imagery it appears to have been levelled.
