The National Monuments Service's description
In undulating pasture, at foot of N-facing slope. Site, indicated as small circular enclosure (diam. c. 10m) on 1923 OS 6-inch map, has been levelled. Noticeable concentration of loose stones in area of site derive, according to local information, from enclosure which was levelled as part of land-improvement work.
