In gently undulating, poorly drained pasture. A circular area (diam. 22m) defined by scarp (Wth 1.1-2.3m; H 0.65-0.7m) and an external fosse (Wth 3.8-6.45m; D 0.1-0.3m) which is best defined from SSE-NW. There is a possible causewayed entrance (Wth 6m) at the NNW. The interior is generally level with frequent rushes. There is a possible ditch barrow (TS059-002001-) within the SE quadrant.
