The National Monuments Service's description
In undulating pasture, on gentle N-facing slope. Monument, depicted as an embanked circular enclosure on 1841 OS 6-inch map, has been partially levelled. However, it is still apparent as a circular area (26m N-S; 26m E-W) defined S->SE by a scarped edge (H 1m; Wth 6m); no enclosing element evident SE->S. Interior level and entire site is under grass.
