The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture. Indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and on the 1899-1900 revision, though clearest on the 25-inch OS map where is it depicted as a rectangular enclosure (dims. c. 46m NE-SW; c. 28m NW-SE), though the NE side is curving outward slightly. Satellite imagery (Digitalglobe viewed 17 May 2021) shows that the monument has been levelled.
