The National Monuments Service's description
On a rise on a gentle SE-facing slope. Circular scrub-covered area (diam. 32.5m WNW-ESE; 30m NNE-SSW) defined by a grass-covered stone spread (at WSW: Wth 3m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 0.5m) with some facing-stones (original Wth 1.3-1.6m) SSE-W, overlain by a drystone field wall W-NE but truncated slightly by a NE-SW field wall E-SE. There is no identifiable original entrance, but the remnants of relict field walls survive in the interior.
