Sub-circular area (int. dims. 39.5m E-W, 36.5m N-S) enclosed by two banks with intervening U-shaped fosse. Inner bank (Wth 11.5m, H 0.8m internally, 3.6m externally) enclosed by fosse (Wth 3.7m, D c. 0.5m) and outer bank (Wth 4.3m, H 1.5m internally, 1.8m externally). Banks gapped in several places but original entrance not recognisable. Outer bank has a modern external drystone facing from NW-N-E. A modern laneway circles the site from NW-N-E-S and replaces the outer bank and fosse at SE.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
