Situated on a small rise, in gently undulating pasture, with good views in all directions. Monument described in 1971 as a much disturbed oval-shaped area (28.5m NE-SW; approx. 18m NW-SE) enclosed by a bank with external fosse. The bank is steep on the exterior and is almost reduced to a scarp. An ESB pole stands in the bank at ENE. There are faint traces of a wide external fosse. The perimeter has been quarried from NW-N and from E-S-SSW. A gap (Wth at top 3.2m; basal Wth 1.6m) in the bank at NNE may represent the entrance. There is no visible trace of a causeway but the fosse is barely traceable at this point. The interior has a slight E-facing slope with no visible features of significance.
