The National Monuments Service's description

In good pasture, within N-area of medieval deserted settlement (TS059-127----). Monument identified during ASI fieldwork. A circular area (dims. 4.75m N-S; 4.75m E-W) defined by fosse (Wth 2.25m; D 0.15m) and outer bank (Wth 3.85m; int. H 0.15m; ext. H 0.15m). This is cordoned off within a small, square area defined by low banks of the deserted settlement. Another ring-barrow (TS059-146----) is located c. 150m to the ESE. It would appear that occupants of the later settlement respected these monuments.
