On a gentle E-facing slope. A raised roughly oval area (33.5m NNW-SSE; 29.5m ENE-WSW) enclosed from E-S-SSW by a scarp (H 1.2m). Elsewhere the perimeter has been modified and incorporated into a field boundary. There is no trace of a fosse. A depression (Wth 3.2m) in the scarp at E may mark the original entrance.
