In pasture, on a S-facing slope. Indicated as a circular enclosure and named 'Danish Fort' on a 1773-4 map (no. 9) by B. Scalé (NLI MSS 7216-18). A circular area (diam. 34m E-W; 29m N-S), with a hollow in the centre, defined by a bank (Wth 2.5m; H c. 0.1m). A linear bank (L 14m E-W; Wth c. 8m) lies 28m to the N and may be the remains of a limekiln indicated on the Scalé map immediately to the N of the possible rath.
