The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a fairly level landscape. The cropmark of a circular feature (diam. c. 20m) defined by a slight fosse is visible only on Apple Maps which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. It has an entrance (Wth c. 2m) at W between the slightly widened terminals of the defining trench. It was first reported by Matthew Mullen-Reynolds.
