The National Monuments Service's description

Not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. Recorded in 1991 as being located within a hollow in otherwise undulating pasture. It comprised a possibly circular area (int. diam. c.20m) enclosed by the partially ruined remains of an enclosing wall, composed of large boulders and heavily overgrown. There was no indication of a fosse or entrance visible (SMR (1989) file). There are no remains of this potential monument now visible at ground level. A house and a tennis court are located 30m to the NE of the site.
