The National Monuments Service's description
At the base of a SW-facing slope in low-lying pasture. A circular area (diam. c. 18m) defined by a poorly preserved scarp (H 0.4m). A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded a narrow, shallow, intervening fosse and an outer bank, both of which have since been levelled. The original entrance is not recognisable.
