The National Monuments Service's description

In pasture, on a SE-facing slope. A circular area (diam. c. 34m) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 5.83m; int. H 1.7m; ext. H 2.15m). An external fosse (Wth 5m; D 0.5m) is evident SW-SE. The S portion of the interior is raised (H 1.4m) to compensate for the hillslope. The interior is obscured by dense overgrowth. The entrance (Wth c. 2.5m) is at SE.
