The monument sits at the western edge of low-lying marshy ground, and the portion that remains to the east of the road is the more legible: a large semicircular raised area, running roughly 78 metres on its north-north-east to south-south-west axis and rising to about a metre in height, its outline defined by a scarp that curves from the north-east, around through the east, and down to the south. An enclosure of this type would originally have enclosed a domestic or agricultural space, its earthen boundary serving as both a marker of territory and a modest defensive or stock-control feature.

To the west of the road, the picture is less clear. No obvious surface trace of the enclosure continues, but a narrow field in that direction preserves what may be related remains: two grassed-over earthen banks, each roughly 1.5 metres wide and about a metre tall, running east to west, with a small stony mound sitting between them. Whether these fragments belong to the same original structure or represent something else entirely is uncertain, but their proximity and alignment make a connection plausible. Sitting 150 metres north-west of an extensive field system, the enclosure occupies the kind of marginal, wetland-edge position that was often favoured in early agricultural settlement, where the boundary between productive land and bog could be managed and exploited rather than simply avoided.
