The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the S end of a low rise in undulating pasture. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 9.5m) enclosed by a bank of earth and stone (Wth. 2.2m - 3.4m; int. H 0.45m - 0.9m) which incorporates some field clearance stones. Some revetment stones are visible. No fosse. Narrow eroded break in bank at NW (Wth. 0.4m) may represent original entrance. Within the interior at S and SW a low stony scarp (H 0.4m) borders a hollow which may be the result of quarrying.
