The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a fairly steep W-facing slope. The cropmark of a D-shaped area (dims c. 37m NNW-SSE; c. 30m ENE-WSW) defined by a single fosse is visible only on Google Earth (14/-7/2018). It is truncated by a NNW-SSE field bank at W, and a U-shaped feature (total L c. 16m) in the S quadrant could be the site of a souterrain. It was first reported by Simon Dowling.
