Situated on a slight rise in a fairly level landscape. This monument is not depicted on any OS map but it is visible on OSI images (2005) and on Google Earth (07/05/2017; 27/06/2019; 14/05/2020). It is a grass-covered slightly raised circular area (diam. of top 38.5m NNW-SSE; 35m ENE-WSW; H 0.2-0.6m) separated by a fosse (Wth of top 11m at NE to 18m at SW) from an outer bank (Wth of base 4-8m; H 0.2-0.3m). There is a causeway (Wth of top 5.5m; H 0.2m) across the fosse at ESE (max. ext. diam. c. 65m NE-SW).
