In pasture, on a very gentle S-facing slope. Moated sites (TS063-030002- and TS063-030003-) are located 32m to S and 96m to E respectively. A substantial sub-rectangular area (dims. 49m E-W; 36m N-S) defined by the remains of levelled scarp (Wth 3.75m; H 0.2-0.45m) to S (L 56m) with remains of levelled bank (Wth at top 4.5m; overall Wth 10m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.15m) to E (L 36m); levelled scarp (Wth 0.35m; int. H 0.5m) to N (L 46m) and almost barely traceable levelled bank to W (L 34m) flanked by deep drain and field boundary. A fosse (basal Wth 1.75m; overall Wth 6.35m; D 0.25m) is evident to E and S. There is a gap (Wth 6m) at the E end of the S side of the monument which is incorporated into the field as pasture.
