Situated on top of a natural hillock with extensive views to S, SW & NW restricted views elsewhere. Roughly circular raised area (diam. 33.5m N-S; 33m E-W) defined by an earth and stone bank (ext. H 1-2m) best preserved from S-SW elsewhere reduced to a scarp with slight traces of a fosse visible at N only. The scarp appears to have been steepened in modern times and a modern stone wall intersects the site at NE. There is a modern field fence on the top of the scarp from W-N. Entrance gap (top Wth 5.5m; base Wth 2.5m) at N and second entrance gap (top Wth 4.2m; base Wth 1.8m) at S, however both of these have a modern appearance. The interior of the ringfort is uneven, rising from the bank in the NE quadrant and then dropping down towards the bank to S & E.
