The National Monuments Service's description

A small, roughly D-shaped enclosure (dims. c. 16m NE-SW; c. 11m NW-SE) defined by a fosse which is visible as cropmark on satellite imagery (Apple Maps), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. A large roughly semi-circular feature (TS076-081----) (Wth c. 90m), defined by a fosse, is visible as a cropmark c. 10m to the SW. This may be part of an associated field system. An enclosure (TS076-080----) and two ring-ditches (TS076-078---- and TS076-079----), also visible as cropmarks, are located c. 250m to the SE and c. 330m and c. 355m to the SSE respectively.
