The National Monuments Service's description
Cropmark of roughly D-shaped enclosure (approx. dims. 71m NW-SE x 542m NE-SW) with entrance gap (Wth 8m) at N visible on Google earth aerial imagery. The roughly straight enclosing ditch (L 71m) at SW appears to be the remains of a possible field boundary extending beyond the monument to W and SE. Two ring-ditches (WI027-093-/094-) are clearly visible 4m to SSE.
