The National Monuments Service's description
In improved pasture, on an E-facing slope. A D-shaped area (dims. 36m N-S; 16m E-W) defined by a low curvilinear bank (Wth 7.8m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.15m) from SSW-NNW and low, linear bank (Wth 8.7m; int. H 0.15m; ext. H 0.4m) forming the straight side to the E. The E bank turns eastward at a right-angle, at the N end. The interior is uneven and contains two piles of clearance stones. There is gravel exposed where erosion and excavation have taken place within. It overlooks another enclosure (TS059-073001-) which lies 20m to the NE.
