The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the edge of a low rise in undulating pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map. Remains comprise a broad scarp (Wth. 3.2m; H 1.5m - 2m), now incorporated into a field boundary, extending in an arc from S-W-NW. It now forms the S boundary of a garden lawn.
