Located at the tip of a low N-S spur that is at the bottom of a steep SW-facing slope, and c. 100m from the meandering NW-SE Arigna River. A circular grass-covered area (ext. diam. c. 35m) that appears to be defined by an earthen bank and outer fosse is visible on Google Earth (11/04/2020). It is also visible on digitalglobe images (2011-13) and OSI images (2005-012). The perimeter is incorporated in field banks NNW-ESE, and it was first reported by Jean Charles Caillere.
