Situated atop hillock with good views in all directions. WM020-008---- located 235m to E, WM020-002---- located 235m to NW. Depicted as a small plantation of trees on 1st edition Ordnance Survey 6-inch map. Only the E half of the monument survives above ground. It is bisected by a post and wire fence running on a N-S axis. No enclosing element could be identified in the field to the W of the field fence. Present remains consists of a circular area (diam. 25m N-S) enclosed by a low bank (Wth 1.5m; ext. H 0.5m) mainly degraded to a scarp with fosse (Wth 2m; ext. D. 0.2m) and traces of an external bank all of which is best preserved from N through E to SE. No entrance feature visible. Small semi-circular curving rise of ground in centre of enclosure intersected on W side by field fence running N-S may represent the remains of a partially destroyed hut site. Well preserved post-medieval cultivation ridges in field where the monument is best preserved.
