The National Monuments Service's description
Located at the N edge of a plateau overlooking the W-E River Nanny, which is c. 100m to the N. The parch-mark in pasture of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) defined by a fosse (max. Wth c. 3m) is visible only on Apple Maps which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. The fosse is poorly defined N-ESE. The parch-marks of drains from a regular but unmapped field system attach to the monument at N, NE and SSE. It was first reported by Noel Meehan.
