The National Monuments Service's description

Not marked on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map. Depicted on the 1913 edition as a small D-shaped field. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 32m) defined from W-WNW-NW by a curve in the modern field boundary and from NNW-N-E by a low scarp (H 0.5m). The S half of the site has been levelled and there are no upstanding remains surviving. No fosse. Original entrance not recognisabble. The E-W field boundary, which divided the site into approximately equal portions, has been removed.
