The National Monuments Service's description
Located at the W edge of a plateau. The cropmark of a circular area (diam. c. 55m NE-SW) defined by the faint shadow of a fosse is only visible N-S-W on iMAPs (2022). The perimeter is incorporated in a field bank W-N, and the enclosure was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére.
