Situated immediately S of a field boundary on a S-facing slope in woodland bordering rolling pasture. Truncates a henge monument (LI013-089----) to NW. This monument consists of a circular area (diam. 28m E-W; 28m N-S) enclosed by a bank with an external fosse. The bank (int. H 0.3 - 0.5m ; Wth 1.1m; ext. H 0.9 - 1.5m) consists mainly of loose stonework covered by earth and moss, and has been robbed of stone at several locations. In the SSE a dip in the bank (Wth 4m) may represent an entrance. The fosse (Wth 2.45m; H 0.7m) is flat-bottomed and uniform all round; apart from in the SSE at the location of the possible entrance, where it is not evident. A bank (H 0.1m; Wth 1.6m) acting as a field boundary runs N-S across the interior. The interior surface is uneven and slopes down to S. It has been suggested (Kelly and Condit 1998) that this monument may be a ringwork.
