The National Monuments Service's description

In tillage. A large roughly semi-circular feature (dims. c. 90m NW-SE; c. 80m NE-SW), possibly a field boundary, defined by a fosse which is visible as cropmark on satellite imagery (Apple Maps), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. A modern field boundary runs NW-SE along the W side and the cropmark feature is not visible W of this field boundary. There is a ring-ditch (TS076-080----) c. 10m to the NE. This feature/field boundary 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. 200m to the SE and c. 280m to the SSE respectively.
