Situated on a low rise, in gently undulating pasture, with good views to E, S and W. Monument described as a D-shaped area (dims. 27m NE-SW) enclosed by a bank visible from WSW-W-NNE and has been removed at SW. There is a modern gap at N and the ground is disturbed on the exterior. There is no fosse or entrance feature visible. The monument has been truncated across the SE sector during construction of a railway line. The remaining portion is divided form the railway by a linear retaining wall running NE-SW along the base of its embankment. The interior has a gentle SE-facing slope. A sub-rectangular-shaped depression with upcast spoil associated with a railway footbridge gate is visible in the SE quadrant. Monument described in 1976 as levelled yet partially traceable. No surface remains visible today on Digital Globe aerial photography.
