The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on N-facing slope. Circular area (29m N-S) defined by scarped edge (H 1.3m: Wth 9.5m) NW->SW but which is truncated SW->NW by N-S field boundary (distance from field boundary to scarped edge at E: 23.1m). The 1924 OS 6-inch map shows field boundary abutting enclosure at S and a farmyard immediately NE of enclosure; both of these are now removed. Interior, under pasture, slopes down to E.
