Situated on a gentle S-facing slope. A roadway (Wth 5-9m; L c. 80m) leading N from the complex of enclosures (RO051-025002-) around the church (RO051-025001-) is bordered by earthen banks. It once extended further N (L c. 100m) where it is visible on aerial photographs (CUCAP BDK 46-7) from the 1970s but this section is now removed.
