The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on N-facing slope. Roughly circular area (15.7m N-S; 19m E-W) enclosed by collapsed dry-stone wall (H 1.2m; Wth 4m). Interior is level and covered by trees and bushes. Running N from NE edge of enclosure is low stony bank (L 62m) which terminates at E-W field boundary. Extending W (L 38m) and E (L 52m) from latter are further sections of low stony banks. These probably remnants of relict field system associated with enclosure.
