The National Monuments Service's description
This promontory fort occupies the irregularly shaped northwest portion of the island. It is defined from S through W to N to E by spectacularly plunging sea-cliffs. It is defined on its SE side by two banks (KE061-003002- and KE061-003003-) and also contains enclosure KE061-00101-. Two banks were noted along the northwest (KE061-003004-) and northeast (KE061-003002-) sides of the island.
