The National Monuments Service's description
Monument, depicted as embanked circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) on OS map, is located in dense deciduous woodland on a steep E-facing slope, overlooking a stream. It is totally engulfed by dense overgrowth of trees and undergrowth of briars, thorn trees and furze bushes. Because of this vegetation cover access to the monument was not gained at time of inspection.
