The National Monuments Service's description
On N-facing slope, in woodland with dense undergrowth. Monument, depicted as sub-circular embanked enclosure (diam. c. 30m) on 1923 OS 6-inch map, is now largely obscured by undergrowth. Where accessible it appears to be enclosed by collapsed dry-stone wall (H c. 0.9m; Wth c. 6m). Electricity pole stands in centre of interior which is largely impenetrable due to undergrowth.
