The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a slight S-facing slope in gently undulating pasture. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 30m) enclosed by a broad flat-topped bank of earth and stone (Wth 6.2m; int. H 0.65m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. A N-S orientated field wall abuts the external base of the bank at E. A break (Wth 4m) in the bank at E marks the position of the original entrance.
