(15/01/1988) SX 5307 7956; an oval platform constructed on a field boundary (see SX 57 NW 67), situated on a slight slope on Cudlipptown Down.
It appears to be terraced into the field boundary and is defined by scarps 0.6m high. Although mostly turf-covered, there are some large, edge-set slabs on the SW arc: possibly remains of original walling. The internal diameter is 4.2m to 4.9m.
