In pasture, on SW-facing slope. Depicted as circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) on 1842, 1904 and 1938 OS 6-inch maps; inner bank (diam. c. 20m) depicted only on 1904 OS 6-inch map. Recorded in 1965 as circular area (46ft N-S; 46ft E-W) defined by two earthen banks (inner bank: int. H 6ft; outer bank: ext. H 3ft) with intervening fosse (OPW). According to local information, levelled c. 1973. Roughly circular area (27m E-W; 24m N-S) defined by low rise (max. H 0.75m) survives; slight rise c. 5m beyond first may be remains of outer bank. Clearly visible as crop mark in aerial photograph (AP. Dr D.D.C. Pochin Mould).
