The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, situated on top of a prominent hillock with steeply sloping sides. The oval-shaped, flat top (27m WNW-ESE; c. 20m NNW-SSE) of the hillock may have been enclosed. The evidence is ephemeral and takes the form of a rough kerb of large stones and boulders along the N-NE edge, which can not be traced elsewhere. There is a large heap of field clearance debris on the S side of the level top, and loose field stones are scattered on the S and SE slopes. A rough farm track cuts across the S-SW side of the hillock.
