The National Monuments Service's description
On the SW side of small hills overlooking a valley to the SW, in rolling reclaimed arable and cultivated pasture. There are good views in all directions. A circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m) indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map but not on the subsequent 1900 revision which suggests it was levelled between 1839 and 1900. There are a number of enclosures (KK012-030----; KK012-031----; KK012-032----; KK012-033----) nearby c. 40m to the E, c. 160m to the NE, c. 140m to the E and c. 250m to the SE respectively, which are also indicated on the 1st ed. OS 6-inch map, but all have since been levelled. The enclosures are not visible at ground level.
