A circular shaped area (diam. 32m N-S; 28m E-W) enclosed by a poorly preserved fragmentary earthen bank and a wide, flat-bottomed fosse, filled in at E & SE, and possibly recently re-dug at N. There is an entrance gap (Wth 2m) at ESE. The interior rises towards the centre and has vague traces of cultivation ridges which run NNE-SSW.
