In woodland, on a rise on a gentle S-facing slope. An oval area (int. diam. 28.5m N-S; 38.5m E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank and an external fosse and planted with trees. The bank is well preserved along the W arc (Wth 2.5m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 1.8m). There is a possible entrance (Wth 1.2m) at NE with a causeway across the fosse and a gap (Wth 1m) in the bank at E. The fosse (Wth 3m; D 0.6m) is deepest along the E arc. There is a hollow (Wth c. 20m) dug out of the fosse at E and planted with trees.
