The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on a slight SE-facing slope. A series of enclosures and linear features visible as cropmarks on a Digital Globe aerial photograph (taken 13 July 2011; SMR file). A smaller inner sub-circular enclosure (diam. c. 44m E-W) is tangentially situated within and at the W edge of a larger enclosure (diam. c. 75m) which, in turn, is abutted by remnants of other linear features and small field-like enclosures probably indicating a field system (LH024-074001-). The features are also visible on Map Genie (1995).
