The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a level landscape. The faint cropmark of a subcircular or D-shaped enclosure (dims c. 40m N-S; c. 40m E-W) defined by a continuous fosse (Wth c. 2-4m) is visible on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Blue Sky International during June 2018. It is also visible on Digital Globe (c. 2013), and it was first reported by Anthony Murphy.
