Located towards the top of the S-facing slope of a drumlin in a coniferous forest. This is an oval area (dims 31m E-W; 25m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 8m; max. H 1.2m) with internal stone facing which survives NW-NE. The bank is reduced to a scarp (H 0.7-1m) elsewhere and there is an external fosse (Wth of top 5-6.4m; Wth of base 3-4m; D 0.2m S-W to 0.5-1m W-N). The original entrance is not identified and the interior was planted in young coniferous trees c. 1988. The rath (LE025-027---) is c. 50m to the N.
