The National Monuments Service's description
In undulating pasture, located in a thicket of hazel and brambles, located on top of a hillock, with good views over lowlying expanse of wet ground to N.
Circular area (20m E-W; c. 18m N-S) defined by a bank of earth and stone (Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.5m). The bank is low and degraded; it is incorporated into field fence at SE-S, and another field fence skirts the W arc. A post and wire fence bisects the interior on a ENE-WSW axis.
