The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on a gentle E-facing slope. Roughly circular depression (diam. c. 30m) defined by low bank (overall Wth 6.9m; Wth at top 2m; int. H 1.3m; ext. H 0.35m) around S-arc and scarp (Wth 4m; D 1.3m) SW-NE. Upper margins of scarp are enclosed by rough ungrazed area of tall grasses and bushes. Interior is (D 1.3m) below present ground level and is poorly drained. A sketch plan and sections drawn in 1954 depict a monument enclosed by a bank (OS Field Memorandums). Monument (TS061-108----) is c. 90m to the SE and has a similarly depressed interior.
