The monument comprises an enclosure of prehistoric date, visible as a series of cropmarks on oblique aerial photographs. It lies in arable farmland at around 50m OD. It comprises an oval ditched enclosure, measuring about 16m ENE-WSW by 8m internally, within a ditch up to 3m broad. There are traces of an outer concentric ditch on the S and N. The monument appears to represent a small enclosed settlement of later prehistoric date.
