Partially hachured

Situated on a rise, in a valley of pasture, between two high ridges. Depicted on the 1837 OS 6-inch map as a circular-shaped earthwork. Shown on the 1910 ed. OS 25-inch map as a subcircular-shaped earthwork which has been cut by a field boundary running NE-SW across the SE quadrant. Monument described in 1973 as a roughly circular-shaped raised platform (diam. 25m) defined by a scarp. A field fence running NE-SW cuts off the SE quadrant of the earthwork. The interior rises gently from the perimeter towards the centre and has an uneven surface. Monument is visible today as an oval-shaped tree-planted earthwork on Digital Globe aerial photography, whereby the field boundary appears to have been adjusted to respect the SE quadrant of the scarp that had previously been severed.
