The National Monuments Service's description

In generally level pasture. An oval area (dims. 30m N-S; 25m E-W) defined by the remains of levelled scarp (Wth 3.7m; H 0.4m) S-N and by scarp (Wth 1.8m; H 1.9m) N-S where it is incorporated into a tree-lined fence. There are the remains of a shallow fosse (Wth 6.5m; D 0.15m) in the NW quadrant. A stream encloses the monument from N-S. There is a possible entrance at WSW, where the scarp is levelled out. The interior has a shallow water-filled depression within the centre. There are slight undulations beyond the monument to the W and a farm trackway to N.
