The National Monuments Service's description
Located in level pasture. Monument, depicted on the 1924 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. 30m) has been levelled but is still evident as a sub-circular area (28m N-S; 25.5m E-W) defined by a scarped edge (Wth 4m; H 0.15m). The scarp is truncated to the E by a modern garden fence and a pump house has been built in the NE quadrant. The interior slopes gently down to W.
