On a NE-facing slope in pastureland. A very poorly preserved quadrangular enclosure (WNW-ESE >47.6m, N-S >13.7m) defined along its N and E sides by a scarp (H 0.6m). No visible surface trace of the enclosing element survives along S and W sides where modern field walls and a laneway delimit it. Another earthwork (GA029-150----) lay 100m to S.
