The National Monuments Service's description
In tillage. A curvilinear cropmark identified as a possible enclosure on an aerial photograph (CUCAP BGH018, 16 July 1971). The monument (dims. c. 54m N-S; c. 40m E-W) is defined by a fosse and appears to be truncated by a road running roughly N-S through the E sector. A house was constructed in 2019 c. 10m NNW of the monument and the SE portion of the house plot encroaches on the NW sector of the enclosure.
