The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture. A circular enclosure (diam. c. 10m) defined by a fosse, visible on satellite imagery (© Google Earth, imagery date 16 December 2016), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. The size of the enclosure and the presence of barrows in the general area suggests that this is a barrow. Another ditch barrow (TS058-092----) is located c. 300m to the NW.
