The National Monuments Service's description
On top of a slight rise on the N side of the interior of an enclosure (TS065-063012-) with a ditch-barrow (TS065-063009-) 12m to the S on the S side of the enclosure. Identified on aerial photograph (Bruff 68, 5/2041). Circular area (diam. 3m) defined by a very shallow flat-bottomed fosse (overall Wth 3.5m; Wth at base 1m; D 0.25m). A possible entrance may be indicated by a slight causeway (Wth 1m) across the fosse at E. The interior, 0.2m lower than external ground level, is level and clear of overgrowth.
