Situated on level summit of hillock in pasture. Raised circular area (diam. 19.5m) enclosed by a bank of limestone rubble (Wth 3m; int. H 0.9m; ext. H 1.45m). No fosse visible. A modern drystone wall of limestone flags and rubble (Wth 0.45m; int. H 1.45m) has been built along the inner face of the bank on all sides. The external face of the bank has been incorporated into a SW-NE orientated drystone field wall SSE-SE. The original entrance is via a break (Wth 1.5m) in the bank and wall at W.
