The National Monuments Service's description
On a gentle S-facing slope. An area of about 19 acres (c. 8 ha) contains a relict field system of regular rectangular fields (dims c. 100m x c. 50m) defined by low earthen banks with some ditches. A rectangular enclosure (RO034-102002-) (dims 16.7m WNW-ESE; 12.8m NNE-SSW) defined by a slight fosse or ditch (Wth 2-6m; D 0.2m), with slight outer banks (Wth 2-3m; H 0.1m-0.4m) at N and S appears to be coeval with it.
