The National Monuments Service's description
On a slight rise in well-drained pasture. Described in 1972 (SMR file) as a rectangular area (56m NW-SE; 44m NE-SW) defined by a substantial, but densely overgrown, bank of earth and stone (H 2m), and an outer fosse. There was an entrance gap on the NE side, and the level interior was featureless.
