This monument is shown on the 1838 and 1930 OS 6-inch maps as an oval enclosure (diam. c. 20m E−W; c. 15m N−S), with a circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m) (MA061-173001-) conjoined to it on the E side. A field boundary on a NW−SE axis is shown on both the 1838 and 1930 maps extending across the NE edge of this enclosure (MA061-173----) and the SW half of the circular enclosure (MA061-173001-); on the 1930 edition, a N−S field boundary is shown cutting through the centre of this enclosure, and an E-W road is shown truncating the N edge of both enclosures. A low, oval grass-covered rise with gently sloping sides is visible at this location. There is no trace of an upstanding enclosing bank or wall. It is clipped on its N edge by the E-W road. The field fences shown on the 1838 and 1930 OS 6-inch maps are extant: The NW−SE field fence extends across the NE part of the rise, and the N-S field fence extends across the centre of the rise. The field fences are densely covered with hawthorn and blackthorn. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 16 April 2019
