Monument visible as a raised D-shaped platform defined by a scrap with fosse from NE-E-S-W-NW, intersected at N by a post-1700 field boundary running E-W on Digital Globe orthoimage taken between 2011-13 and on Google Earth orthoimage dated 14/09/2019. Relic field boundary running N-S depicted on the 1840 ed. OSi 6-inch map clearly visible on Digital Globe and Google Earth orthoimages.
