The National Monuments Service's description
On a gentle NW-facing slope in rough upland terrain, 2m SW of ringfort (TS088-036002-) with 4m NW of another ringfort (TS088-036001-). This oval enclosure (diam. 34m N-S; 28m E-W) is defined by a stone wall, most of which survives in a collapsed state (Wth 1m crest, 2.8m base; int. H 0.77m; ext. H 0.43m) and is partially grass-covered. There is a gap in the wall in the SE quad. (Wth 0.7m), however, this appears to be a sheep gap.
