The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a slight E-facing slope and just S of a farm complex. The cropmark of a large subcircular enclosure (dims c. 82m NW-SE; c. 70m) defined by a single fosse is visible only on Google Earth (14/07/2018). It is cut by a NNE-SSW field bank towards the edge at E, and it was first reported by Faith Bailey.
