On a low, naturally formed conspicuous rise, in improved gently undulating pasture. Depicted as an oval enclosure (c. 30m N-S; c. 23m E-W) on the 25-inch OS map, being truncated by a field boundary (long-axis NE-SW) across the NW sector, on the 1921 edition of the OS 6-inch map. Not visible at ground level. An old concrete silage slab (c. 18m N-S; c. 6m E-W) is cut (D c. 1.8m) into the E-half and contains round bales. A pile of manure and old silage wrappings obscures the exterior at E. The OS 25-inch map depicts and names ‘Limekilns’ c. 10m to ESE, which could suggest that the knoll may have been quarried for limestone, prior to insertion of the silage slab.
