In grassland, in SW corner of field with post-1700 field boundaries intersecting the monument at SW, SE and S. This is the most northerly of three ringforts (LI006-040-/042----) forming a line running NW-SE for a distance of c. 200m. The two ringforts (LI006-040-/042----) lie 63m and 190m to SE respectively. Monument indicated as a sub-circular shaped area defined by a bank on the 1838 OS 6-inch map. Shown on the 1897 OS 25-inch map as a roughly circular-shaped area (approx. int. diam. 28m N-S, 24m E-W; ext. diam. 42m) enclosed by a bank from NE through S to W and by a scarp from NW to NE. Monument visible today on Digital Globe imagery taken 2011-13 with enclosing tree-covered bank with a gap at NNW. Traces of outer ditch visible from S through to NW on Google earth orthophoto taken 20/11/2010 may be associated with post-1700 drainage.
