On a low, yet distinct plateau (long-axis NW-SE), in improved pasture. This feature is depicted on the 1842 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a circular coppice of trees (51m N-S; 48m E-W) defined by a perforated line. It is described by Westropp (1917, 11) as a ‘small earthen ring, possibly sepulchral’. This field has been much improved and the top of the naturally formed plateau has been levelled out. There is little trace of an enclosure, except the arc of a low scarp (Wth 3.4m; H 0.7m) SE-S. This may be a result of material from the ‘earthen ring’ which has been levelled out downslope.
