The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on a gentle S-facing slope in pasture. A cropmark of an oval enclosure (diam. c. 50m N-S; 45m E-W) is visible on Digital Globe satellite imagery (c. 2010). It is not indicated on any OS maps. A field bank abuts the NE sector and extends NE into the field to the NE where a second curved bank is visible. These field boundaries (CL033-196002-) have some visible remains at ground level. This possible ringfort was reported to the National Monuments Service by David Galvin.
