In rough pasture, located on a terrace on a NE-facing slope. At the base of the slope is a natural depression of wet ground.
Slightly raised circular area (37.4m NW–SE; 34.6m NE–SW) defined by a partly levelled scarp (H 0.6m at SE, NW; 0.3m at W), which is best preserved on the NE half. A slight depression (Wth c. 2m), wet in parts, immediately outside the scarp hints at a possible encircling fosse. A property fence, on a NW–SE axis, crosses the enclosure to SW of centre. A shallow linear depression (Wth 3.8m, 2m at base), deepest at its NE end extending from the field fence through the interior to the scarp at NE. Faint cultivation ridges traverse the enclosure interior a NE-SW axis.
Grass cover, with ferns and brambles spreading in the NE half. There are several old quarry pits dug into the downslope of the ridge to N–NE of the enclosure, the closest being 5m to NE.
