The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on slight E facing slope in pasture. Raised, roughly rectangular area (32m E-W; 20m N-S) enclosed by a wide, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 4.55; H 0.3m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. From SE-SW, the bank is absent and the edge of the site is defined by a drystone field wall with a scarp beneath. Original entrance not recognisable.
