The National Monuments Service's description

Situated in pasture on a gentle E-facing slope with extensive views from NE through E to SE. A poorly preserved subcircular enclosure (ext. diam. 10m NE-SW; 10.8m NW-SE; int. diam. 5.7m NE-SW; 6.2m NW-SE) defined by a broad, grass-covered, earth and stone bank, best preserved and narrowest at N (Wth 1.91m; int. H 0.22m; ext. H 0.22m) and built into the slope at W where it is level with the external ground. At E-SE the bank (Wth 3.25m; ext. H 0.26m) widens out and slopes very gradually into the interior. The interior is generally fairly level and grass-covered but very uneven. Visible on Google Earth (image taken on 7 March 2010; accessed 12 November 2014) and on OS ortho photography (accessed 12 November 2014).
