What is recorded here

On a gently sloping bluff in a valley, in reclaimed grassland. There are very fine views in all directions. Monument identified on an aerial photograph (GSI 1:30,000). The enclosure was not visible at ground level when visited in 1987. However, it is visible on satellite imagery (Google Earth imagery date 8 March 2010 and 28 June 2018). It consists of an internal roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 31m N-S; c. 28m E-W) visible as the cropmark of a fosse, a gap of c. 16m and an outer enclosure (diam. c. 60m) visible as a low bank.
