The National Monuments Service's description
On a slight SE-facing slope. D-shaped grass-covered area (dims 33.8m N-S; 30.2m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.6m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.4m) SSE-SW which is best preserved where overlain by a field wall SW-NNW (Wth 3m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 09m). An outer fosse (Wth of base 3m; D 0.5m) and outer bank (Wth 2.5m; ext. H 0.1m) also survive SW-NNW. The perimeter is formed by an E-W field bank (Wth of base 3.6m; int. H 0.7m; ext. H 0.9m) at N and a N-S field bank at E (Wth 3.7m; int. H 0.9m; ext. H 0.8m). There is no identifiable original entrance.
