The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on a gentle N-facing slope. Not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. Listed in the SMR (1989) as a possible enclosure based on evidence from an aerial photograph (ACAP, V 227/54-5). A large roughly circular area (diam. c. 55m), with an indefinite edge is visible in the aerial photograph. There are no archaeological remains visible here at ground level. It is not certain that what is visible in the aerial photograph represents an archaeological monument.
