The National Monuments Service's description
In tillage. A sub-rectangular enclosure (diams. c. 40m NE-SW) visible as a cropmark on Google Earth (imagery date 28 June 2018), identified and reported by Simon Dowling. There is a less pronouced outer fosse c. 8m outside the inner fosse. The SE-S sector of the enclosure is not visible. A field boundary, indicated on the OS 6-inch maps but now visible as a cropmark, runs NW-SE across the SW edge of the enclosure.
