Situated on level summit of a narrow NE-SW orientated ridge, on the NW-facing lower slopes of Cope's Mountain, in pasture. The monument is located at the SW end of the ridge with natural ground level sloping down steeply E-N. Oval raised area (dims. 27m NE-SW; 15m NW-SE) enclosed by a substantial bank of earth and stone (Wth 3.65m; int. H 1.5m). At the external foot of the bank is a fosse (Wth 4.25m; D 1.5m). The bank is most substantial N-E where it, in conjunction with the fosse, traverses the level summit of the ridge. The fosse encloses the site N-E only. From E-SSW and W-N the bank is almost entirely absent and where natural ground level falls down steeply from the site. A break (Wth 2m) in the bank with a causeway across the fosse at E marks the position of the original entrance.
