The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a level terrace in generally SSW facing undulating upland pasture. Raised circular area (diam. 26m) enclosed by a low broad bank of earth and stone (Wth 4.75m; int. H 0.1m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. From NW-SE the bank is absent and the site is defined by a broad gently sloping scarp (ext. H 0.3m). Traces of a removed NW-SE orientated field wall bisect the site. The original entrance is not recognisable.
