The National Monuments Service's description
In gently undulating pasture. Shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a circular ring (diam. c. 25m) of trees, encompassing most of the space within a square field (c. 30m N–S; c. 30m E–W). In the centre of the ring of trees a souterrain (MA011-042001-), marked as ‘Cave’, is located. It is possible that the ring of trees marks the remains of a ringfort. Not marked on the 1913 edition. There are no remains visible at ground level.
