The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a level landscape. The cropmark of a circular area (diam. c. 37m) defined by a slight fosse is visible on iMAPs (2019, 2022). It is truncated slightly by a WNW-ESE field bank at N. The enclosure is also visible on Google Earth (18/09/2019), and it was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére.
