The National Monuments Service's description
In improved pasture, cut into a SW-facing slope which overlooks a river valley. Circular area (dims. 23m E-W; 21m N-S) defined by the remains of a levelled bank (overall Wth 11.7m; Wth at top 3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.7m) and outer fosse (Wth 8.8m; D 0.4m). The bank survives from S-N but is reduced to scarp (Wth 5.35m; H 1.25m) N-S. The fosse is visible from S-NNE and is cut into the natural rise downslope to the SW. The interior is in lush pasture and tilts with the natural slope.
