Situated in relatively low lying wet pasture, enclosed to N, E and S by a stream and to W by a land drain. Depicted on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular-shaped earthwork and on the revised 1913 ed. OS 25-inch map as a subcircular-shaped earthwork defined by a scarp. Monument is clearly visible on Digital Globe aerial photography as an oval-shaped earthwork. Leading from higher ground, c. 65m to E there is a raised earthen causeway which extends initially in a linear form and then curves around to intersect with ringwork/motte (WM027-026----) at NW. This can be followed on Digital Globe aerial photography and may indicate that the two monuments were physically connected on this wet floodplain.
