The National Monuments Service's description
On the flat summit of a hill in rolling terrain, under pasture. The levelled enclosure (TS081-018----) was formerly visible on the opposing ridge to the NW. Monument depicted as a roughly circular enclosure on the 1st (1840) and 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map (diam. c. 33m N-S; c. 38m E-W). Monument levelled though a slight trace of a curving bank in the W quadrant may be a remnant of the enclosure.
