The National Monuments Service's description

In tillage. The cropmark of a field system is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs (ASIAP (20) 11-12, 2 August 1996). The field system consists of a large roughly rectangular enclosure which runs northeastward from a circular enclosure (KK019-138----), also identified as a cropmark on the aerial photographs. A fosse runs concentrically with the N-NE sector of the enclosure and c. 25-30m from it, this may be an other enclosure or could be part of the associated field system.
