The National Monuments Service's description
On a SW-facing slope. About 20m NW of the church (RO056-004001-) is a modern NE-SW field bank, and a field system covering about 3 acres (c. 1.2ha) survives to its NW. There are portions of two rectangular fields (dims c. 30m x c. 30m) defined by earth and stone banks (Wth c. 3m; H 0.5-1m) associated with lazy beds. A house site (RO056-004014-) (ext. dims. 5.3m E-W; 4.3m N-S) is built on one of the field banks.
