The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in gently undulating pasture. On the 1838 OS 6-inch map, this souterrain, marked as ‘Cave’, is shown as a small oblong feature located within the centre of a circular ring (diam. c. 25m) of trees, which are, in turn, enclosed within a square field (c. 30m N–S; c. 30m E–W). It is indicated as 'Cave (Site of)' on the 1913 edition. No trace of a souterrain now visible. The souterrain may have been located within a ringfort (SL011-042002-).
