The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a SW-facing slope at the head of a NE-SW valley. The cropmark of a subcircular enclosure (dims. c. 35m E-W; c. 30m N-S) defined by a slight fosse is visible only on Google Earth (14/07/2018). The fosse can barely be traced W-N-E. It was first reported by Simon Dowling.
