Situated on top of a broad plateau. This is a flat-topped earthen mound (max. dims. at top 8.5m N-S; 7m E-W: dims. at base 21m E-W; H 4.3m) that is now D-shaped as a result of quarrying at the NE. There is no evidence of a fosse. The site is overgrown and planted with coniferous trees. The enclosure (WA007-006002-), a grass-covered area (dims. 44m E-W; 40m N-S) defined by a scarp (max. H 0.7m) with traces of a fosse at S, is attached to the S and could serve as a bailey. Tower house (WA007-007----) is c. 150m to the E.
