The National Monuments Service's description

In pasture, on gentle N-facing slope. Depicted as sub-rectangular enclosure ( ) on 1923 OS 6-inch map. Partially levelled; sub-rectangular area (40m NE-SW) enclosed by kink in dry-stone boundary wall (H 1.35m) W->NE and by modern wire fence NE->W. Gateway through fence at SW leads to galvanised hay shed against enclosing wall. Not for inclusion in the inventory as depiction on OS 6-inch map not definitely suggestive of archaeological site.
