A subcircular area (c. 14m NW-SE; c. 13m NE-SW) enclosed by a collapsed sod-covered stone wall (Wth 1.8m; H 0.4m). There is a break (Wth 4m) in the wall at NW and another (Wth 3m) at ESE. The interior is slightly sunken. Immediately to W and NW is a vertical rock-face (max. H 2m) that forms the SE side of a ravine but to S and SE the ground slopes away gently.
