The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture, located in a strip of lowlying pastureland, 200m E of the coastline, with easily accessible beaches 200m to SE and 500m to N.
Slightly raised circular area (10.4m N–S; 8m E–W) defined by a low, degraded earth and stone bank (Wth c. 2.5m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H c. 0.7m). Stones of various sizes protrude randomly from the bank. The inner face of the bank is poorly defined, barely rising above interior ground level, and the external face is slumped.
There is a NNE–SSW field fence immediately to E of the enclosure, and a there is a house, garden and associated outbuildings immediately to N.
