The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on steep S-facing slope. Monument, depicted as circular enclosure (diam. c. 15m) planted with trees on 1841 OS 6-inch map, has been levelled but slight roughly circular depression marks the site. Proximity of site to Heathfield House suggests feature may have been tree ring in its demesne.
