In wet, low-lying pasture. Depicted as a small circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A circular, steep-sided mound of earth and stone (diam. at base 14m; H 1.2-1.4m) encircled by a shallow fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.2-0.3m). At the outer lip of the fosse are fragmentary traces of a possible bank. The top of the mound is slightly dished (D 0.2m). Four mature oak trees are growing on the monument.
