A little below the crest of the ridge of hills between the Deen and Gloshia river valleys, in rolling pasture. An oval area (int. dims. 17m N-S; 17m E-W) defined by low, wide earthen bank (Wth at base 5m; int. H 1-1.4m; ext. H 2m) which has been truncated on exterior faces to give an externally circular plan. There is an entrance in the SE sector and a modern entrance in the SW.
