An OS trig. station marking 345 ft. OD is shown standing on N side of enclosure on Cassini 6-inch map. Monument surveyed by the ASI in 1999 and described as a raised circular-shaped area (33m E-W; 31m N-S) defined by a scarp, berm and the remains of a low outer bank with entrance gap (Wth 5m) at E and a corresponding entrance gap (Wth 2m) in the outer bank. The intervening berm is level and present from NW-N-E-S-SW and a steep natural slope falls from the outer edge of the monument from SW-W-NW. The outer edge of the berm is defined by a low earthen bank from NNE-E-SE and by a scarp from SE-S-SW. The interior is slightly dome-shaped.
