The National Monuments Service's description
In lowlying level, improved pasture, drained immediately to the N by the W-flowing Finnery River, and formerly immediately to the S where the track of an infilled field drain is visible. A slightly raised D-shaped area (diam. 41m E-W) with a straight N side (L 32m) truncated by the Finnery River is defined NNE--S-NNW by a long low scarp (H 0.4-1m).
