The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture. A roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 45m) indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and on the 1900 revision. A field boundary runs NW-SE along the NE edge and another runs immediately outside the SE sector. It is evident from satellite imagery that the monument and the neighbouring field boundaries have been levelled.
