What is recorded here
On the crest of a flat-topped, gently undulating, roughly E-W running ridge, in pasture. The monument is depicted as a roughly circular enclosure on the 1st (1840) and 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map (diam. c. 58m). On the 2nd (1904) ed. a fosse is clearly depicted enclosing the N half of the monument. The field boundary which ran E-W from the E quadrant has been removed, as has the enclosure itself. There is no visible trace of the enclosure at ground level. A house with separate garage was built c. 40-50m S of the enclosure in the late 1990s. According to local information this enclosure was levelled in the 1970s/80s.
