The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on N-facing slope. Roughly circular area (20m SW-NE) defined by exceptionally wide scarped edge (ext. H 2.3m; Wth 16m). Wall of otherwise demolished house stands on base of scarp N->NE; field drain truncates base of scarp NE->SE. Running W from SW corner of scarp is bank of earth (Wth 25m; H 1.1m) which may be material dumped here when nearby enclosure (LI030-071---) levelled c. 1975.
