On a gentle N-facing slope of an E-W spur. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 38.9m N-S; 36m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.3m; int. H 0.1-0,3m; ext. H 1.1-1.3m) which has been reduced to a scarp (H 0.3m) ENE-ESE and which has been quarried (D 1.3m) SW-NW. It is surrounded by a fosse (Wth of base 2.2m at S to 4-5.2m generally; D 0.5m-1.1m), with an overgrown outer bank (Wth 1.4m at N to 3.5m at W; ext. H 0.6-0.8m) SSW-W-NNE which is incorporated into a road bank SE-SSW. There is a rectangular grass-covered house platform (RO014-029002-) (dims 10m E-W; 8m N-S; H 0.2-0.6m) at the centre, and the site is overlain by an overgrown NNE-SSW field bank W of the house platform.
