On a gentle SE -acing slope in gently undulating terrain, in pasture. Monument levelled but is still visible as a roughly circular enclosure (diam. 30.5m N-S; c. 37m E-W). A field boundary which ran E-W along N edge of the enclosure and another which ran N-S along W edge (Wth 2.35m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 1.2m) are still in situ, the S and E quadrants are defined by a low scarp (Wth 4m; ext. H 0.26m). Both field banks have been truncated by cattle.
