The National Monuments Service's description
Listed in both the SMR (1989) and RMP (1995) and classified as 'Enclosure'. Not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. Its inclusion in the SMR was based on a feature, interpreted as an oval enclosure (c. 40m N-S; c. 20m E-W) with trees growing on the perimeter, visible in an aerial photograph (GSIAP, G 258-9). Upon inspection in 1993 no remains of an enclosure were identified.
