This univallate stone fort is situated in the corner of a pastoral field with fieldbanks running into the enclosing bank to the NW and SE. It consists of a sub-circular area enclosed by a well-defined bank and traces of an exterior fosse. The enclosing stone-lined bank is 6.4m wide; it rises to 2m-3.8m externally and to 1.2m-2.7m above the interior. The external fosse is evident from the NW through N to E to SE, where it is 2m wide and .6m below the surrounding land. The interior is at a slightly higher level than the surrounding land and access is gained by a 2.6m wide entrance to the E.
