The National Monuments Service's description
On S facing slope, just off flat crest of hill in undulating pastureland. Ringfort levelled but visible as a roughly circular area (diam. 45.4m N-S; c. 48m E-W) enclosed by a broad, very shallow bank, with some stone protruding from the surface. No visible evidence of ext. fosse. Gap (Wth. 2.6m) in bank in SSE quad. which may be original entrance. Interior slopes to S.
