Circular area (diam. 4m) enclosed by a slight scarped edge (Wth 1m; H 0.1m) with a shallow fosse (Wth at base 0.8m: D 0.05m) and a low broad external earthen bank (overall Wth 4m; Wth at top 1.5m; ext H 0.1m). From NW-NE the scarped edge, fosse and external bank are not visible at ground level and a modern WSW-ENE orientated modern field drain lies along the line of the fosse. The interior is level and clear of overgrowth.
