Marked as a triangular wooded enclosure (dims. c. 50m N-S; c. 50m E-W) on the 1837 ed. and as a quarry (diam. c. 50-55m) on the 1914 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Situated on a gentle E-facing slope, it is not visible at ground level in pasture. Archaeological testing (08E0660) c. 30m to the SW failed to produce any related material (Purcell 2011).
