Situated on a slight rise, in gently undulating pasture, with good views to E. Ringfort (WM026-015----) c. 12m to WNW. Annotated as a circular-shaped earthwork on the fieldwork map (SMR file). Monument described in 1971 as a rectangular-shaped area (dims. 27.5m E-W; 22m N-S) enclosed by a bank and external fosse. The bank is low and broad and is best preserved along the S and W sides. It is almost reduced to a scarp along the N side, with a counterscarp at the base, and has been quarried along most of the E side. The fosse is shallow and is best preserved along the S and W sides. There is no clear entrance and no obvious features within the interior. Monument is visible as faint rectangular-shaped earthwork on Digital Globe aerial photography.
