The National Monuments Service's description
At the crest of a NE-facing slope. This is a D-shaped grass-covered area (dims 15m NE-SW; 12m NW-SE) defined by a scarp, which is obscured by grass and briar-covered spoil (H 2m) NE-SE, but the inner and outer facing stones of a wall (Wth 1.6m) can be seen at SE. The site is truncated by a NE-SW wall at NW and by a quarry face at SW.
