H 3.15m) SW-NNW and NNE-E, and elsewhere by a scarp (Wth 3.5m; H 2.7m). There is an intervening fosse (Wth 2.5m; D 0.35m) ESE-W and an outer bank (Wth 2.15m; H 0.8m) ESE-SW. The entrance (Wth 2m), with a downsloping ramp, is at NE and there is also a gap in the enclosing bank at NW. The level interior is shaded by deciduous trees. There is a possible souterrain (KE109-007001-) in the interior.
