The National Monuments Service's description
On the edge of a N-S ridge, on ground sloping to W, in undulating pasture. Enclosure situated c. 28m SW of neighbouring levelled enclosure (TS082-052001-). Though levelled the edge of this roughly oval enclosure (diam. 28m N-S; 25.2m E-W) is still discernible as a slight scarp (H 0.35m) surrounded by a fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.35m) and counterscarp. It is visible on an aerial photograph (GSI May 1977, S. 687/6).
