The National Monuments Service's description
A large curvilinear enclosure (dims. c. 70m N-S; c. 64m E-W), defined by a fosse which is visible as a cropmark on satellite imagery (Apple Maps), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. A field boundary ran NW-SE through the centre of the enclosure and another NNW-SSE along the W perimeter, both now visible as cropmarks. There are two ring-ditches (TS076-078---- and TS076-079----) c. 25m and c. 50m to the S respectively.
