The National Monuments Service's description
In farmyard, bound by pasture WNW-NE and on top of conspicuous rise with good views in all directions. Circular area (dims. 36m N-S; 34m E-W) defined by remains of low earthen bank (overall Wth 4.75m; Wth at top 1m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 1.1m) best preserved around N-arc. Bank supports many mature trees. Interior is generally level, with a slight tilt down to E. Trackway (long axis NW-SE) (Wth 3m) truncates monument off-centre to NE. Either side of interior is covered in dense growth of nettles and is littered with old machinery and pieces of scrap metal. Enclosure, possible (TS060-087----) is c. 100m to NNE.
