The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a level landscape. The cropmark of an unmapped large enclosure (int. dims c. 80m NNE-SSW; c. 70m WNW-ESE) defined by a wide fosse feature (Wth c. 4-6m) is visible on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. It was first reported by Matthew Mullan-Reynolds, and it is also visible on Google Earth (21/04/2019) and faintly on OSAP (1995).
