The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, at base of N-facing slope, c. 6m to S of mill stream at its closest point. Low profile bank (Wth 2m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.15m) of earth and stone is L-shaped in plan form, enclosing field boundary/mill stream to N. Bank (L c. 14m) defines S-side and right angled return of bank (L c. 16m) defines E-side. There is a row of briars (long-axis c. N-S) to W, possibly delineating an old field boundary shown on the OS 1st ed. map. Later wall (long-axis NE-SW) (L 6.5m; H 0.1m; T 0.75m) is within interior. Ringfort (TS068-083001-), earthworks (TS068-083002-) and enclosure (TS068-083003-) are located c. 65m, c. 200m and c. 170m to SW respectively.
