The National Monuments Service's description
On the S-facing slope of Guggy Hill in undulating terrain, under tillage. The easternmost of two conjoined enclosures. It is not depicted on the 1st (1840) or subsequent 1904-05 ed. OS 6-inch maps. In an aerial photograph (OS 8758; no date), it appears as a roughly circular cropmark (diam. c. 30m) with a conjoined circular enclosure (TS082-077----) attached to the W quadrant. There is no visible trace of the enclosure above ground.
