The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a gentle N-facing slope. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 33m N-S; c. 31m E-W) defined by a single fosse (Wth c. 1-2m) is visible only on Apple Maps (2018). The perimeter cannot be traced NW-NNE and SE-SW. Enclosure (ME032-101----) is c. 80m to the E, and the features were first reported by Jean Charles Caillere.
