The site is not depicted on historic OSi maps. Not visible on the OSi orthoimages. Identified by Bruff aerial photographic survey in 1986 (Bruff 250 AP 4/3740) as an enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35m). The site is identifiable as a roughly circular enclosure where the N, E and S side is visible; the W side is less obvious. The enclosure is not visible on most recent Google Earth orthoimage taken 28/06/2018 or on other Google Earth orthoimages.
