The National Monuments Service's description
In level pastureland. Very poorly preserved roughly subcircular enclosure (28m WNW-ESE; 21m NNE-SSW) defined by a bank from SW to WNW and by a scarp from WNW to NE. A curving field boundary, immediately to the E of which flows a stream, overlies the enclosing element from NE through E to S.
