The enclosure measures c30m E-W by c25m N-S and is formed by partially enclosing the end of a steep gully with a straight length of walling (L 14m; H max 0.8m; W max 0.4m) at the west end and a larger, curving wall (L 19m; H max 1m ) at the eastern side. To north and south the enclosing element is steep bedrock ridges.
