On top of a very slight rise in gently undulating pasture. Another ringfort (TS057-001----) is visible c. 180m to the WSW and a stepped-barrow (TS057-003001-) is visible c. 185m to the SE. Raised circular area (diam. 24m) enclosed by a steep earthen scarp (Wth 5m; ext. H 1.9m) with a largely silted up flat-bottomed fosse (Wth 4m; D 0.4m). Field bank orientated NNE-WSW extends across the fosse to within 2m of the external base of the scarped edge at WSW and at NW and is separated from the base of the scarped by livestock tracks. Break (Wth 2m) across the scarped edge with a causeway (Wth 6-7.5m) across the scarped edge at S marks the position of the original entrance. Interior is dished with an area (diam 7-8m) in the centre that slopes gently down toward the entrance at SSE. The interior is dry and clear of overgrowth.
