The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in pasture, c. 20m N of a field boundary running ENE-WSW. Monument not visible on Digital Globe aerial photography and is not depicted on any OS historic maps. A field description from 1983 indicates that it is not possible to discern any features of archaeological interest as the field is currently under a heavy crop of hay. Cropmark of levelled monument identified on aerial photographs taken 1973 (GSIAP). No surface remains visible.
