The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, located on a SE-facing slope. This enclosure is not indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is shown on the 1922 edition as a penannular hachured area (c. 25-30m N−S; c. 25m E−W), open to SE. According to local information this enclosure was levelled in the late 1970’s or early 1980’s; there is no visible trace at ground level.
