In fallow arable field, ploughed right up to edge of monument. On top of low rise at spot height 268ft. Raised circular area (dims. c. 46.3m N-S; c. 44m E-W) defined by earthen bank (Wth 5.1m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 1.55m). Possible modification of exterior of bank on E side. Interior rises upwards gradually from base of bank to raised (H 0.65m) circular area (dims. c. 36m N-S; c. 34m E-W) which tilts gently downwards to SE. Possible that this is original interior and that internal bank has been levelled into a possible intervening fosse (Wth 5.1m; D 0.5m), leaving the slight depression around the raised circular area within interior. Furthermore, steep drop to deep fosse like feature within E edge of interior. Ringfort (TS068-038----) intervisible c. 135m to NW and ringfort (TS068-040----) intervisible c. 285m to SE.
