On the edge of a farmyard, with farm buildings immediately to the N and to the S end of the E side, in good pasture. A trapezoidal-shaped enclosure (dims. c. 40m N-S; c. 38m E-W on the N side tapering to c. 25m on the S side) indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and on the 1900 revision. Described by Barry (1977, 188) as consisting of a flat platform enclosed by a bank (H 1m; Wth 4m) and waterlogged fosse (Wth 3.5m; D 2.6m). There is a possible stone-lined entrance in the NE corner (ibid.). The monument is heavily overgrown with trees and scrub.
