The National Monuments Service's description
Visible on aerial photographs (ACAP V227/29-30), it is situated on a terrace overlooking the S bank of the W-E Boyle River and runs W-E from Assylin Church (RO005-020001-) on the S bank and immediately N of the railway line. A low bank or carriageway (L c. 150m E-W; Wth 4-5m; H 0.2-1m) is accompanied by two parallel grass-covered linear depressions (Wth 6.7-12.6m; D 0.5-1.5m), one on either side which merge into a single feature (Wth 23m; D 1.6-3m) at the W end, probably because of quarrying.
