On a rise in rolling grassland. Circular rath (D 60m), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank is visible intermittently but for the most part a scarp forms the enclosing element. The outer bank is present only at W. There is an entrance gap at E. A field wall cuts the monument at SW and NW. Abutting the monument at W is a subcircular annexe (E-W 39m) defined by a scarp with the remains of a bank visible intermittently.
