On top of a low rise, in pasture, with moderate views in all directions. Depicted on the OS 25-inch map as a raised roughly oval-shaped area (approx. dims. 40m N-S x 27m E-W) defined by a scarp with fosse and external bank, field boundaries radiate out from SW, NW and NE. Levelled monument visited by the ASI in 1999 and described as no surface remains visible. According to local information, this monument was removed in the 1980s, although it had been known locally as a ‘fort’ (SMR File). Partially levelled monument visible as an oval shaped area defined by a cropmark from NW-N-E-S-SW and incorporated into the field boundary from SW-W-NW on Digital Globe orthophotos taken 2011-13 and on Google Earth orthoimages taken 20/01/2020.
