The National Monuments Service's description
A circular ring-ditch (max. diam. c. 18m) showing as cropmarks on aerial photograph (CUCAP BGG050, 16 July 1971). The aerial photograph also shows another similarly sized ring-ditch (KK010-071002-) c. 10m to the S. On Digitalglobe satellite imagery (viewed 7 January 2019) the SE quadrant of a large circular trackway (diam. c. 120m) appears to be located on or adjacent to the ring-ditch.
