In pasture, on steep S-facing slope immediately below brow of hill. Monument, depicted on 1841 OS 6-inch map as circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m), has been levelled. However, slight trace of an earthen bank (H c. 0.1m) can be traced WNW->N. Interior, under pasture, slopes down sharply to S following gradient of surrounding terrain. A field boundary clips bank at NE.
