The National Monuments Service's description
On a level summit of slight broad E-W orientated ridge in gently undulating pasture. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 22m) enclosed by a stone wall (Wth 3m; int. H 1.4m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. From NW-W the walls are densely overgrown and inaccessible. Where accessible, the wall is made up of un-mortared, un-coursed limestone rubble. The wall is faced internally and externally by random rubble limestone boulders with a core of smaller rubble. The original entrance is not recognisable.
