In pasture, on W-facing slope, above steep S-facing slope down to River Funshion. Circular area (25m E-W) enclosed by heavily weathered earthen bank (int. H 0.8m), worn due to animal activity; intervening fosse NE->SSE; outer earthen bank (H 0.8m) NE->SE which survives as scarp SSE->NW. Break in bank to NNE (Wth 2.2m) and SSE. Interior slopes down to W; slight scarp exists inside and concentric with W bank where interior raised to compensate for hillslope. Enclosure partially overgrown with bushes and briars.
