The National Monuments Service's description
In wet, low-lying pasture. A circular, saucer-shaped depression (diam. 12.8m; D 0.45m) enclosed by a wide, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 5.95m; H 0.45m) with an external fosse (Wth 3.6m; D 0.5m). From SSW-W-WNW the outer face of the bank and the fosse have been modified and incorporated into a field boundary. From E-S-SW the fosse has been infilled and its outline is barely identifiable. The original entrance is not recognisable.
