The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a very slight NE-facing slope in pasture. Slightly raised circular area (dims. 26m N-S; 25m E-W) enclosed by a narrow earthen bank (Wth 4.25m; int. H 0.4m) which has been removed from NE-E, S-SW and WNW-NW. There is no fosse visible at ground level. From NW-NE the bank has been modified and incorporated into a curving field boundary. The original entrance is not recognisable.
