The National Monuments Service's description
Located on the SE-facing slope of a small hill, with a small N-S stream c. 20m to the NE and the W-E Glyde River c. 250m to the S. It is also just outside the demesne of Corballis House, c. 200m to the E. The faint cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) defined by a single fosse is visible on Google Earth (12/07/2013). It is also visible on Digital Globe (c. 2013), and it was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére.
