The National Monuments Service's description
Located on an E-facing slope. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 48m NW-SE; c. 44m NE-SW) defined by a single slight fosse feature is visible only on Google Earth (14/07/2018). The perimeter is slightly clipped by a NNE-SSW field and road bank at E (L c. 30m) and there may be an entrance gap (Wth c. 10m) at NNW. It was first reported by Jean Charles Caillere.
