In poorly drained, undulating pasture, on a ridge. A possible enclosure (TS059-038001-) adjoins to the SW. A circular area (dims. 15.5m E-W; 14m N-S) defined by a low bank (Wth 3.5m; int. H 0.18m; ext. H 0.45m) at WNW & SE-S, otherwise reduced to scarp (Wth 2.5m; H 0.8m), with an external fosse (Wth 3.6m; D 0.2m) at the SE-SW and WNW-N. There are gaps (average Wth 2.6m) at the W, ESE and S. The interior has a S-facing slope. Field boundaries to the E have been removed.
