In pasture, broken by seams of limestone out-cropping, located on the gentle S-facing slope of a ridge, providing excellent views E–SW of the surrounding hilly terrain. The N and E sides of the field are bordered by commercial quarry pits. Circular area (19.5m E–W; 17m N–S), with a gently sunken interior, defined on the perimeter by a ruined stone bank/wall (Wth 2m; int. H 0.45-0.55; ext. H 0.3-0.5m). The enclosing wall is largely sod-covered, with stones protruding from the sod in parts. At NW–N and at S–SW it is evident only as grass-covered undulation. At W it is truncated or overlain by a later field wall/property boundary on a NNW–SSE axis. The enclosure has a shallow, saucer-like profile. There are two possible hut sites (DG103-083----; DG103-084----) located 40m and 60m, respectively, to SSE.
