Located in undulating, hillocky terrain on ground sloping generally to the S. Only the E sector a larger enclosure (TN023-043001) has survived, defined by a curving bank the outer face of which has stone revetting. There is no evidence of an outer fosse. A field bank of earth with stone revetment crosses the site from NE to SW and there is no visible trace of the enclosure to the W of this field bank. Small stones probably represent grave markers at the S end of the enclosure. There is a small cairn of stones (dims. 3.4m N-S; 4.1m E-W) near the field boundary at the S end with a bullaun stone (TN023-043002) visible. A gap (Wth 2m) in the bank in the NNE sector is due to sheep erosion. According to Stout (1984, 86-8) 'bones have been turned up in construction work at the southern edge of the existing site'.
