On a high prominent hill in rolling pasture with extensive views in all directions. A raised subrectangular area (c. 85m NW–SE; c. 77m NE–SW) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 2.5m; H 0.2-0.7m) with a shallow external fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.2m). The original entrance is not recognisable. Built against the inner face of the bank at SSW is a house site (LF023-020003-). At the centre of the interior is another enclosure (LF023-020002-). Low, linear banks of earth and stone extend from the latter, at NW, NE and SSE, to the bank of the larger enclosure. The relationship between the two enclosures is unknown. A quarry road had been constructed ‘near to and partially impinging’ upon this monument prior to monitoring of topsoil stripping for a realigned quarry road in 2002. No archaeological features or artifacts were recovered (Russell 2004, 348-9).
