Situated on summit of narrow E-W ridge. Remains of a flat-topped circular mound (overall diam. 14m; diam. at top 8.2m E-W, 4.5m N-S; H 2m). N side of mound has been partially removed, probably during the creation of a field bank along this side to form a tree plantation. Half-way up the mound is a berm from SW-S-E-NE, but this feature may be due to landscaping. Recorded as a ringfort by Barrett (CLAJ 1982, 82).
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
