Situated on top of a slight rise, in gently undulating pasture. Monument described in 1971 as a subcircular-shaped area (dims. 27.5m N-S) enclosed by a bank and external fosse. The bank is substantial and is approximately twice as high on the outside as it is on the inside. A wide, deep fosse is visible from SW-W-N-E and is very slight from NNE-E. The outer face of the fosse appears to have been steepened in modern times from SW-W-N-NNE, where it has a modern fence along its upper edge. The ground outside the monument has been disturbed from E-S-SW owing to a dwelling and associated haggard abutting from NNE-SW. There is a large disturbance gap in the bank at N. A large gap (Wth at top 6m; basal Wth 2.2m) in the bank at E may represent an entrance. There is no definite trace of a causeway at E, however the ground has been disturbed where the gable-end of the house abuts the monument. The interior is quite uneven with rises and hollows.
