The National Monuments Service's description
On flat terrain in gently undulataing pasture, on ground sloping to the N. The ringfort is fenced around its perimeter with post and wire fencing and the interior is heavily overgrown. An enclosure (TS079-002002-) is located c. 30m to the NW. A raised oval area (diam. 29m N-S; 36m E-W) defined by a rounded bank (Wth 5m; int. H 0.28m; ext. H 1.6m) and a fosse (Wth 3.7m; D 0.55m) which is apparent in from S-W-N. The SE quadrant has been disturbed, possibly due to limited quarrying.
