The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on a N-facing slope. Depicted on the 1st ed. (1841) OS 6-inch map as a circular area (diam. c. 36m) enclosed by a bank. According to the landowner, the ringfort was largely levelled in the mid 1960s but a portion of the enclosing bank (int. H 1.4m; ext. H 1.35m) was preserved in a field boundary S-WNW. A farm trackway borders at SW.
