The National Monuments Service's description

Located on a slight S-facing slope. The cropmark of a subcircular or D-shaped enclosure (diam. c. 30-35m) defined by a single fosse feature but with no visible entrance gap is visible on aerial photographs (MM (54) 9-10) and on digital aerial photographs (WX030-084_1 to _4) taken in 2006. The possible enclosure (WX030-048----) is c. 80m to the NNW, although they may be the same site.
