The National Monuments Service's description

On top of a slight irregular rise in gently undulating improved pasture at the NW corner of a larger, now levelled, rectangular enclosure (TS066-051001-). Roughly rectangular raised area (dims. 35m NW-SE; 32m SW-NE) defined by a broad flat-topped earthen bank (Overall Wth 6m; Wth at top 2m; int. H 0.15m; ext. H 0.75-1.85m). The bank is best preserved on the NE and SE sides being very low and difficult to discern the SW and NW sides. A break (Wth 6m) in the bank at toward the NE end of the SE side may mark the position of the original entrance. The interior is level and clear of overgrowth.
