In improved pasture, on the upper edge of an E-facing contour. Levelled remains of oval area (dims. 32m E-W; 28m N-S) defined by levelled scarp (Wth 3.7m; H 0.35m) S-NW and reduced to a very short, levelled scarp (Wth 1.5m; H 0.35m) NW-S. Interior is higher to W-side and falls gently to E, with prevalent slope. Faint scar of curvilinear field boundary respects E-side of monument. Trackway may truncate base of scarp to W and trackway c. 2m to S. The enclosure is depicted on the 1st (1840) and 2nd (1952-54) ed. OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular area (diam. c. 30m) and was drawn as such in a sketch plan and sections in 1954 (OS Field Memorandums). In 1982 Cahill (unpublished thesis) described the monument as being in poor condition with one bank and a waterlogged ditch. Ringfort (TS061-091----) is c. 100m to SE.
