The National Monuments Service's description
On level break of slope, c. 50m E of a henge (TS075-039----), in rough pasture. Roughly circular area (diam. 29.3m N-S; 32m E-W) enclosed by a bank (Wth 3.1m crest, 5.7m base; int. H 0.65m; ext. H 1.58m) which has stone protruding, particularly at the crest. There is a gap (Wth 4m) in the ESE quadrant which may be the original entrance though it has probably been widened. The bank is denuded from the NW to NNE and the outer face of the bank in the S quadrant is eroded in places.
