The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a fairly level landscape. The cropmark of a rectangular enclosure (int. dims c. 45m NE-SW; c. 30m NW-SE) with rounded corners is defined by a wide fosse or moat (Wth c. 4m) separated by a berm (Wth c. 4m) from an outer fosse or drain (Wth c. 2m). It is visible only on Apple Maps, and the features are only visible in the NW half of the enclosure. The monument may be a moated site, and it was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére.
