The National Monuments Service's description
On the N bank of a now dry meandering stream, in low-lying wet pasture. A circular enclosure (overall diam. c. 14m), defined by a fosse and what appears to be an outer bank, visible on satellite imagery (Google Earth satellite imagery, 18 November 2018), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. There are a lot of barrows in the general vicinity, including a large barrow (TS066-057----) c. 170m to the WNW and a ditch barrow (TS066-057001-) c. 200m to the W.
