Situated on high ground with extensive views. A large circular area (diam. 47.5m E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 1.5m; int. H 1m; ext. H 1.5-2.5m) which has been reduced to a scarp in places, with possible evidence of an external fosse (Wth 3.5m) at SE only. There is a modern gap (Wth 2.5m) in the bank at W. It was impossible to examine the E sector of the bank due to dense overgrowth. The interior of the site has been planted with evergreens and field fences radiate out from the site at W, S and SE.
