The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on a S-facing slope, abutting a ditch barrow (TS066-193001-) to the E. Identified during field survey by Alison McQueen and Vera Rahilly (17 February 2009). An enclosure (TS066-192----) is located c. 23m to the SW. A D-shaped area (dims. 5.6m N-S; 3.25m E-W) defined by a well-preserved fosse (overall Wth 2.05m; basal Wth 0.4m; D 0.2m) and the remains of a possible outer bank visible in the SE and NW quadrants. The monument is transected by a linear feature aligned N-S (Wth 1m; H 0.06m), which is possibly up-cast from a shallow drain across the W sector.
