The National Monuments Service's description
On a NW-facing slope in pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded that the outline of a bank and external fosse could still be traced enclosing a circular area (diam. c. 33m). The monument has since been levelled and is not visible at ground level. Another ringfort (LF019-075----) lies c. 80m to the ENE.
