In pasture, located on a slight rise.
Slightly raised circular (30m N–S;31m E–W) defined by a low bank (Wth 2-2.5m; int. H 0.2-0.3m; ext. H 0.7-0.8m) of earth and stone, and enclosed at S–WNW by a fosse (Wth 3m) and external bank (Wth 2.4m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 0.7m). Both banks appear to be largely earthen in construction, but incorporate stones in parts, with a scattering of stones, mostly field clearance, along the top. The outer bank has been levelled at E–S, but a slight surface undulation can still be discerned. The fosse, which is silted up, appears shallow and narrow, and is filled with field clearance debris in parts. A break (Wth 3m) in the inner bank at ESE may indicate the original entrance. The W half of the interior is at a slightly higher level that the E half.
Interior is largely grassy but scattered with hawthorn bushes; hawthorn and blackthorn cover both enclosing banks. There is a rath (MA082-023----) 260m to WNW and another (MA082-025----) 145m to E.
