The National Monuments Service's description
Identified from an aerial photograph (Bruff Survey: Map 23, Bruff 77: AP 4/3679) and described by Doody (2008, 134) as a 'subcircular platform, c. 50m N-S x 40m E-W, 0.5m high from base of the ditch'; the morphology of this enclosure indicates that it may be Bronze Age in date (ibid.).
