The National Monuments Service's description
Two curvilinear enclosures (diam. of N enclosure c. 50m; diam. of S enclosure c. 30m), defined by a fosse which is visible as a cropmark on satellite imagery (Apple Maps), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. There are traces of other linear cropmarks to the SW. These appear to relate to a field system which may or may not be contemporary with an enclosure (TS068-155----) c. 100m SW of the curvilinear enclosures.
