The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture. A circular enclosure (overall diam. c. 50m) indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and on the 1947 revision. On the latter map the enclosure is defined by scarp and an outer fosse from E-S-W. A field boundary runs ENE-WSW along the S perimeter of the enclosure. The monument has subsequently been levelled but the fosse is visible on satellite imagery (Digitalglobe, viewed 23 August 2021).
