The National Monuments Service's description
In tillage. Aerial photographs (GB89.T.11 and 14) show cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 25m) defined by a fosse. The very fresh, precise appearance suggests that this is most likely to be a landscaping feature rather than an antiquity, though it is not indicated on either the 1st (1839) or 2nd (1900) ed. OS 6-inch map.
