The National Monuments Service's description
In undulating pasture. Identified during a field inspection of an enclosure (TS066-140----), within which this enclosure is off-centre to the NW. A circular area (dims. 7m N-S; 8m E-W) defined by scarp (Wth 1.8m; H 0.2m) SW-N-SE and higher scarp (Wth 4m; H 0.45m) SE-S-SW with a fosse (Wth 7.5m; D 0.2m) visible from W-N-NNE, accentuated by rushes. A depression to the S may be associated with the enclosure.
