The National Monuments Service's description
In area covered by dense scrub. Site depicted as roughly circular hachured area (diam. c. 30m) on 1923 OS 6-inch map, is now masked by dense vegetation overgrowth, with only a short stretch of enclosing stone bank visible where it borders trackway NNW->NE. Bank (int. H 1.15m; ext. H 1.35m), worn down by cattle accessing interior at NNW, has sheer external face along trackway. Interior inaccessible due to dense overgrowth.
