The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on gentle rise in gently undulating terrain. Oval area (33m N-S; 28m E-W) defined by scarped edge (H 1.05m; Wth 6.5m). Scarp is clipped by dry-stone field wall, travelling on E-W axis, ESE->SSW. Scarp juts out at NW probably due to outcropping limestone. Interior, under pasture, slopes down to S.
