The National Monuments Service's description

On a SE-facing slope in low-lying pasture. Depicted on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map as an irregular tree-planted enclosure and on the 1914 edition as a roughly subrectangular enclosure. The monument was levelled in the early 1970s (local information) and is not visible at ground level. It may have been a landscape feature.
