The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on very slight E-facing slope in pasture. Raised circular area (diam. 30m) enclosed by an earthen scarp (ext. H 0.6m) with a fosse (Wth 3.6m) and a substantial external earthen bank (Wth 3.3m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 0.65m). A break in the external bank (Wth 4m), with a corresponding causeway across the fosse, at E marks the position of the original entrance.
