The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a slight S-facing slope in gently undulating pasture within Hazelwood Demesne. Shown as an irregularly-shaped, tree-ring on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map. On the 1912 edition it is depicted as an oval-shaped arrangement of seven trees (diam. c.30m) with an eighth centrally positioned within the area enclosed. This monument is identifiable as a poorly defined, subcircular feature on aerial photographs (ACP V203/34-5). This monument has been levelled and there is no visible surface trace at ground level.
