OS 6-inch map the monument is depicted as a partial rectangular enclosure aligned NE-SW (diam. NW-SE 32m; NE-SW c. 35m) defined on all three sides except at N by a bank. It has been classified as possible moated site based on the 1st ed. OS 6-inch map designation. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
