Situated on the lower S facing slope of a high ridge in hilly grassland with good views to SE and SW. Ringfort (WM012-136---) 90m to SW. This site has been levelled, and is visible only as a cropmark on the Digital Globe aerial photograph taken November 2011. Described in 1970 as a circular shaped area (approx. diam. 31m NW-SE; 31m NE-SW) enclosed by a two earthen banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank is low and wide (Wth 6.8m; H 0.4m), the wide fosse (Wth 5.4m) is visible from N-E-SE, and the low outer bank (Wth 1.9m; H 0.52m) arcs around the fosse. There is an entrance gap at S. Traces of cultivation ridges are visible running NNW-SSE across the interior, which slopes to the SSW. A field fence originally ran along the line of the perimeter from S-NW.
