On the crest of a WNW-ESE ridge. Subcircular grass-covered area (dims 42.3m N-S; 38m E-W) defined by an overgrown and complete but gapped earthen bank (Wth 2.7-4m; int. H 0.1-0.5m; ext. H 0.8-1.6m) with some inner facing stones at E, and a complete outer rounded fosse (Wth of base 2.8-4.3m; D 0.3-0.5m), which is very slight (D 0.1m) NW-NE. There is no visible entrance, and the interior is overlain by the remnants of a NNE-SSW field wall and hedge.
