On a very gentle E-facing slope, in improved pasture. Westropp (1914-16, 67), described this monument as an ‘earthen fort’. A roughly circular area (28m WNW-ESE; 26m NNE-SSW) defined by a bank (int. H 0.6m; ext. H 2m; Wth at top 0.75m; overall Wth 3.25m) ENE-S and W-WNW and by a scarp (Wth 3.9m; H 0.55m) WNW-ENE. The enclosing elements are truncated by a farm road (long-axis NW-SE) across the SW sector. There is no obvious entrance or fosse. The interior is generally level and featureless. Ringfort (CL035-104----) is c. 62m to S and ringfort (CL035-101----) is c. 115m to W.
