Situated on top of a drumlin. This is an overgrown oval area (int. dims 35m E-W; 28m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (at SE: Wth 5.4m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 1.35m) overlain by a collapsed field wall, and a slight waterlogged fosse (at SE: Wth of base 3.1m; D 0.35m). The original entrance is not identified.
