On a gentle E-facing slope of a broad E-W ridge. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 28m N-S; 25.3m E-W) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 3.1-4.8m; int. H 0.2-0.6m) separated by a fosse (Wth of top 3.2-4m; Wth of base 1.7-2.2m; D 0.2-0.4m) from an outer bank (Wth 2.6m; H 0.2m) which only survives W-NE. The outer bank is overlain by a NE-SW field wall at W and there is a NW-SE field wall outside the perimeter at S. The original entrance cannot be identified. Rath (RO023-006----) is c. 50m to the NW.
