The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, located at the ENE end of a low, roughly E−W ridge, with a stream 100m to SW.
This enclosure is not shown on the 1837 OS 6-inch map; it is indicated on the 1919 edition as roughly oval, hachured enclosure (c. 20m N–S; c. 15m E–W), incorporated into or truncated by a NW−SE field boundary on its SW edge. There is no visible trace at ground level.
