The National Monuments Service's description

Depicted as a grove of trees standing beside a tree-lined avenue leading up to Webbsbrook House 115m to N and not as an antiquity on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch. Hachured as a circular-shaped earthwork (approx. diam. 37m N-S; 33m E-W) on revised 1911 ed. OS 6-inch map. Circular shaped earthwork visible on Digital Globe aerial photograph taken November 2011. Probably a tree-ring of post-1700 date associated with landscaping of demesne belonging to Webbsbrook House.
