The National Monuments Service's description
A circular enclosure (diam. c. 60m), defined by a fosse which is visible as a cropmark on satellite imagery (OSI MapGenie imagery, 2013-18), identified and reported by Anne-Karoline Distel. The interior appears to be sunken. A curvilinear fosse is also visible from SW-NW (at a distance of c. 80m to the SSW, c. 100m to the W and c. 60m to the NW). There are also a number of enclosures (KK023-046001- to KK023-046005) located in the immediate vicinity to the W and NW.
