Towards the top of the SW-facing slope of the NE summit of a NE-SW ridge. Marked as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 50m) only on the 1914 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and visible on aerial photographs as a large enclosure defined by a wide fosse with traces of an internal and external bank (CUCAP: AHN 3-6) which appears to have had an entrance at SE. It has been removed since the 1970s and is visible today as a circular grass-covered area (diam. c. 40m) defined by a slight scarp (H 0.1-0.5m). Archaeological testing (99E0233; 99E0366) associated with a NNW-SSE road c. 50m to the W failed to produce any related archaeological material (Moore 2000; Swan 2000b), and neither did testing (06E0297) c. 100m to the WNW (Henry 2009a). Ring-barrow (RO006-118005-) is c. 30m to the E.
