In pasture, located on a N–S limestone ridge, abutting the S side of a hillfort (DG103-072----).
This enclosure is barely discernible at ground level. It consists of a roughly circular area (diam. 20m) defined on the perimeter at NNE–NNW by a very low, moss-covered stone bank (Wth 1.5-2m), and bordered at N by the stone bank of the hillfort (DG103-072----). The enclosing stone bank is most clearly defined at NNE–E but it more difficult to trace S–W. The interior is flat and grass-covered but feels stony underfoot and appears to incorporate expanses of natural limestone bedrock: the enclosure is located on a broad seam of limestone bedrock that continues to N and S beyond the enclosure. The slumped external slope of the enclosing stone bank of the hillfort appears to overlie the junction of the two monuments, and the exact relationship between the two is unclear. There is a possible hut site (DG103-095----) c. 25m to S.
