The National Monuments Service's description
Marked as a D-shaped field (dims c. 55 E-W; 45m N-S) on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and as an oval enclosure (dims c. 50m E-W; c. 45m N-S) defined by a curved field bank W-N-S with buildings outside the perimeter at S on the 1915 ed. Situated on the crest of a ridge. The disused buildings survive within a rectangular enclosure defined by masonry walls extending SW to a NNW-SSE lane, but there is no evidence of the enclosure.
