The National Monuments Service's description
In a farmyard. A large mound (TS060-031002-) is located c. 40m to the N and a smaller mound (TS060-031003-) is located immediately NE of the possible enclosure. Depicted on the 1906 edition OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular area (dims. c. 34.6m NNE-SSW; c. 38m ESE-WNW) defined by scarp. A kink depicted in the scarp in the SW quadrant map indicate localised quarrying. The monument appears to have been truncated by a field boundary running E-W through the N quadrant. On the 1906 map this field boundary is depicted as a hachured bank. A farm trackway runs roughly E-W N of the monument, as depicted on the OS map. The monument is not visible at ground level, the area of the interior being occupied by stables and associated structures.
