The National Monuments Service's description

A large oval enclosure (diam. 50m NW-SE; overall NE-SW 65m) visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs (ASIAP (18) 30-33, August 1996). The W portion of the monument is in a different field and does not show up clearly as a cropmark but appears as a darker area in the field. The enclosure is indicated as a large tree-ring on the 2nd ed. 6-inch OS map.
