Identified from an aerial photograph (Bruff Survey: Map 23, See Bruff AP 4/3672). In pasture, on a NW-facing slope. Sub-rectangular area (32m NNE-SSW; 18m WNW-ESE) defined by a scarped edge (Wth 1.5m; H 0.17m) best defined on down-slope (Wth 4.7m; H 0.8m) W-NW; scarps melds into earthen bank (Wth 4m; int. H 0.15m; ext. H 0.4m) SE-WSW with an opening (overall Wth 7.5m; basal Wth 4m) at WSW. External fosse (Wth 4.05m; D 0.3m) NNW-SW. Break of slope where linear scarp (Wth 1.75m; H 0.25m) crosses interior (long-axis WNW-ESE) creating lower level in SW-sector. Dry water channel enters fosse at S and large dry stream bed lies immediate W of monument. Ring-barrow (LI024-184----) c. 150m to WNW.
