The National Monuments Service's description
In wet pasture, on a gentle NE-facing slope. An oval area (dims. 24m WNW-ESE; 16m NNE-SSW), with a dish-shaped interior, defined by scarp (Wth 1.5m; H 0.35m) from NE-SE and SW-NW and by a lower scarp (Wth 1.8m; H 0.15m) from SE-SW and NW-NE. There are gaps (Wth 3m) at the NNW and NNE (Wth 4m). A band (Wth 4m) of freshly disturbed soil, with recent regeneration of growth, encompasses the monument. An enclosure (TS059-061----) is located c. 120m to the NW.
