The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on very gentle ESE-facing slope. Monument, depicted on 1841 OS 6-inch map as circular (diam. c. 50m) enclosure, has been levelled. No trace of monument evident when inspected. This is probably site described by Westropp (1916-17, 35) as 'an interesting dun 90 feet across (LI019-101----), with two lofty pillars 8 feet to 10 feet high, leaning towards each other' but which had been 'levelled, being just traceable' and the pillars 'broken up'.
