On a slight E-facing slope in a low-lying landscape. Oval grass-covered area (dims 39.3m E-W; 28.3m N-S) defined by three overgrown earthen banks. The slight inner bank (Wth 5.2-5.8m; int. H 0.2-0.4m; ext. H 0.1m at W to 1.4m at E) is separated by a fosse (Wth of top 5.6m at W to 9.6m at E; Wth of base 2.4-3.8m; D 0.9m at W to 1.4-1.9m generally) from a large central bank (Wth 6.3m at W to 9.7m at E; ext. H 1.2-1.7m). A second fosse (Wth of top 6.6-7m; Wth of base 2.1-3m; D 0.5-0.6m) SE-W-E separates this from an outer bank (Wth 3.7m; ext. H 0.7m) which has a third fosse (Wth of base 2.1m; D 0.4m), both of which only survive WSW-NW. There is an entrance through the inner (Wth 3m) and central (Wth 4m) banks with a causeway at ESE (max. surviving dims c. 80m E-W; c. 68m N-S). The possible rath (RO023-128----) is c. 90m to the SE.
