The National Monuments Service's description
In flat terrain in a marshy area which has been reclaimed. A stream runs c. 100m to the NW. Circular area (diam. 23m) defined by a denuded bank (Wth 4.4m crest; 7.6m base), flattened to form a scarp (H 0.76m). There is a slight suggestion of an outer fosse. The ringfort is grass covered in reclaimed pasture.
