Situated near top of a slight N-facing slope, in gently undulating elevated pasture. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 22m) enclosed by a low broad bank of earth and stone (Wth 6.1m; int. H 0.3m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. The bank is best preserved E-NNE with only trace remains visible NNE-E. The original entrance is not recognisable. A small disused quarry consisting of a roughly rectangular depression (L NNE-SSW 7.10m; Wth 2.2m; D 0.3-0.8m) that widens toward the S end (Wth 6m). The base slopes slightly from S (D 0.3m) to N (D 0.8m).
