Circular area (dims. c. 82m SE-NW) defined by curving bank (NW-SE) topped with thorn trees etc., now incorporated into field boundary. No enclosing element SE-S-NW, but a very sheer slope SW to NW may have served as a natural barrier. Interior tilts/slopes gently to N - no features visible within. Surviving bank (Wth. 2.75m; H int. c. 1.2m; H ext. c. 1.25m) has breach at NE. Enclosure visible on aerial photograph (GSI 16.4.1974, R.514/513).
