The National Monuments Service's description
Located just off the tip to the E of a small W-E spur. The cropmark of a small circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) defined by an external fosse feature with an entrance gap (Wth c. 6m) at SE is only visible on Google Earth (14/07/2018). There is an inner fosse or ditch S-N-SE indicating a narrow bank (Wth c. 2-3m). It was first reported by Jean Charles Caillere.
