The National Monuments Service's description
In improved, undulating pasture, on a WNW-facing slope of a low rise. A sub-oval area (dims. c. 35m WNW-ESE; c. 30m NNE-SSW) defined by a bank (overall Wth 5.75m; top Wth 2.2m; int. H 0.25m; ext. H 0.65m) and the remains of a shallow fosse (Wth 5.8m; D 0.15m). Both the bank and fosse are only visible intermittently due to dense vegetation cover. The interior is overgrown and inaccessible due to impenetrable briars. The edge of the monument was slightly truncated by a field boundary, running NE-SW, in the SE sector as depicted on the 1904 edition OS 6-inch map. The field boundary to the W has been removed.
