Situated at the crest of the SE-facing slope of a short NW-SE drumlin ridge. A slightly raised oval and grass-covered feature (dims c. 45m N-S; c. 38m E-W) defined by a wide bank (Wth c. 5-8m) is visible on Google Earth (29/01/2019). It overlain by a NW-SE field bank N of the centre, and it was first reported by Jean Chrales Caillère.
