Situated on a low natural hillock in undulating countryside with poorly drained land immediately to the SW. A raised circular area (diam. 50m E-W) enclosed by a poorly preserved earth and stone bank which has been mainly reduced to a scarp (ext. H 0.6-1.2m) with slight traces of an external fosse (Wth 3m; D 0.2m) best preserved at S. There is a possible entrance gap (Wth 5m) at SW and a modern gap at N (Wth 5.5m). The external face of the bank at N has some evidence of drystone wall-facing.
