The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the bottom of a NW-facing slope. Noted during inspection in the area in 1999 and 2002 as possible conjoined ancient enclosures but found to be of modern drystone construction. The enclosure to the W is roughly oval in shape with a gap at SSE, that to the E is subrectangular and is defined by natural rock outcrop at E with a later wall on top.
