Situated in area of scrub and woodland on W facing slope of hill, with ringfort (WM001-022----) 90m to SW. A heavily overgrown ringfort consisting of a roughly oval-shaped area (approx. diam. 54m N-S; 31m E-W) enclosed by two earthen banks with a deep intervening external fosse and entrance gap (top Wth 5.1m; base Wth 1.6m) at E. The massive inner bank has several gaps due to erosion and is much disturbed by tree roots and animal burrows. Evidence for internal drystone facing of the inner bank near the entrance gap. There are remains of a rectangular house (WM001-021001-) against the inside of the bank at the W side of the entrance gap. The outer bank is only visible from N-E and may be a later enclosing feature possibly associated with the area of woodland in which the monument is located.
