The National Monuments Service's description
In a tillage field on top of a ridge of high ground with good views in all directions. This was depicted as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 41m) on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map. The enclosure is not depicted on the 2nd (1903) ed. OS 6-inch map and the adjacent field boundaries depicted on this edition have all been removed. It is not visible at ground level, however, it is visible on the OS ortho as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 50m), with a field boundary running NW-SE through the eastern sector.
