The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in level pasture. Not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch maps. Included in the RMP (1995) as a possible enclosure on the basis of an aerial photograph (ACP V203/75-6; Roll 128, print 10). A gently domed D-shaped area (c. 18m E-W; c. 12m N–S; H 1.3m) defined on the straight side to S by a modern E-W field fence. This may be a naturally-occurring feature rather than a genuine antiquity.
