The National Monuments Service's description
On an E-facing slope in pasture. A raised subcircular area (35m E-W; 30m N-S) enclosed from SSW-N-NE by a much-eroded low bank of earth and stone (Wth 2-2.5m; H 0.3-0.7m) and elsewhere defined by a scarp (H 1.1-1.75m). There is no trace of a fosse and the original entrance is not recognisable.
