This monument comprises the remains of a rectilinear enclosure of prehistoric date represented by cropmarks visible on oblique aerial photographs. It lies in arable farmland at around 20m OD and comprises a trapezoidal enclosure measuring some 35m N-S by about 35m E-W at its N end, tapering to approximately 25m at its S end, within a ditch some 2m wide. Darker patches inside the enclosure appear to indicate the remains of former domestic structures.
