What appears to be a circular pen, now reduced to little more than its NW half, is situated on a low knoll in rough pasture 500m WNW of Birchmoor. It measures about 4m in diameter within a grass-grown stony bank up to 1.6m in thickness and 0.2m in height.

Visited by RCAHMS (JRS) 28 September 2006.
