The National Monuments Service's description
Located at the crest on the W side of the valley (Wth of top c. 120m) of a small N-S stream. The cropmark of what is probably a post-medieval field bank defined by two ditch features is visible on aerial photographs (WX045-088_1 to _ 4) that were taken in July 2006. From the S it swings W and curves NE (C. c. 90m) terminating at both ends at the edge of the valley.
