The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on a gentle N-facing slope. Identified during field inspection (02/12/2006). Linear earthwork extends from NW (long axis N-S; L c. 40m) and from SE (long axis E-W; L c. 35m) from sub-circular/wedge-shaped enclosure (TS068-027----). Linear earthwork extending from NW appears to be a linear depression in centre defined on either side by levelled bank. Linear earthwork extending from SE is the remains of a bank (Wth c. 10m; int. H 1.0m; ext. H 1.6m to base of drain) and is possibly truncated by field boundary to S.
