The National Monuments Service's description
On steeply rising land just above the flood plain of the river Dinin which flows c. 100m to the S, in reclaimed grassland. Indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map as a roughly D-shaped enclosure (dims. c. 32m N-S; c. 56m E-W) with a field boundary running NE from the E end of the N side, another running SE from the S sector, another running SSW from the SW sector and another running W from the W sector. The monument is not indicated on the 1947 revision which suggests it was levelled between 1839 and 1947. A farm trackway follows the line of the NE and SSW field boundaries and appears to run through the enclosure. The enclosure is not visible at ground level.
