This monument comprises the remains of two enclosed settlements and related features represented by cropmarks on oblique aerial photographs. It lies in arable farmland at around 45m OD on a knoll some 5m higher than its immediate surroundings and comprises the remains of two circular enclosures, each measuring between 15m and 20m in diameter within ditches 1.5m to 2m width. A linear cropmark lying between them may be a souterrain, and the enclosures have wide opposed entrances facing E and W.
