The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a slight rise in gently undulating pasture. Depicted on the 1837-8 and 1940-1 editions of the 6'' OS 6-inch map as acircular enclosure (diam. c.20m). The monument is densely overgrown and inaccessible. It appears to be defined by an inner bank (H c.2m), a fosse and an outer bank (H c.1.5m).
