The National Monuments Service's description
In improved, undulating pasture, on the upper edge of a prevalent NW-facing slope. Land also falls gently to WSW. Remains of a circular area (dims. c. 32m NE-SW; c. 26m NW-SE) truncated by a field boundary across the NE sector. The monument is defined by a low bank reduced to scarp in places, an intervening fosse and a low external bank which is very eroded by livestock. There is a possible entrance (Wth c. 4-5m) at S. The monument is fenced off by an electric fence.
