The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a slight SW-facing slope in gently undulating pasture. Circular area (diam. 5.5m) enclosed by an earthen scarp (ext. H 0.15m). At the external base of the scarp are a fosse (Wth 3m) and an external bank of earth (Wth 3m; H 0.25m). There is a modern causeway across the fosse, with a corresponding break (Wth 2m) in the external bank, at SW.
