Situated on a slight rise, in gently undulating pasture. Bivallate ringfort described in 1971 as a roughly circular-shaped area enclosed by a bank, an intervening fosse and an outer bank with a gap (Wth at top 3.7m; Wth at base 1.6m) at SE which may represent the original entrance. The inner bank is best preserved at ESE and is almost reduced to a scarp elsewhere. It has several narrow modern gaps and slight quarry depressions. The fosse is visible from SSW-W-N-NE and has been truncated from NNE-E by a field boundary running NW-SE. The low remains of an outer bank are visible from SSW-W-NW. The interior rises slightly from the perimeter towards the centre, where a hut-site (WM024-089001-) is located.
