Situated on a prominent hillock in undulating grass-land. Ringfort (WM013-018---) 130m to NE, bowl-barrow (WM013-016----) 220m to W. A monument which is difficult to classify due it its unusual morphology. Present remains consists of a sub-oval shaped area (approx. diam. 25m NW-SE; 16m NE-SW) enclosed by a low earth and stone bank standing on the summit of a hillock (approx. diam. 80m N-S; 60m E-W) the base of which is enclosed by two earthen banks and an intervening fosse. The intervening space between the inner enclosure and the outer banks are not concentric with the inner enclosure, and the gap between them is 5m at E, and 33m at N. There is an entrance gap (inner bank Wth 2.6m; external bank Wth 2.25m) in the outer enclosing banks at N. Traces of cultivation ridges are visible running ESE-WNW across the intervening space.
