On the flat summit of a ridge in gently undulating terrain, the field N and E of the monument is under tillage, that to the W is in grass. The field boundaries E and NE of the monument have been removed and appear to have been bulldozed into the fosse in the N quadrant. Enclosure (TS077-099----) is located c. 30m to E. The monument consists of a raised circular area (diam. 19.5m NE-SW) defined by a scarp (H 0.91m) and wide, deep, round-bottomed fosse (Wth 2.4m; D 1.02m) with crescent-shaped bailey (diam. 28.8m NE-SW; max. 12.3m NW-SE) to E. The W half of the ringwork is densely covered with scrub. There is a hollow area S of the bailey which is heavily overgrown with nettles. On the 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map the N-E-S sides of the ringwork are enclosed by a fosse, which is partially incorporated in a field bank, now destroyed. The fosse of the W side of the ringwork is enclosed by a curving field boundary.
