Situated on a slight natural rise, surrounded by gently undulating grassland. Ringfort (WM012-171---) 200m to NNE, ringfort (WM012-172---) 250m to ESE. This site has been substantially levelled. All that remains is a very low bank extending in an arc from SE-W-NW, with remains of a slight external fosse. Traces of cultivation ridges are visible in the interior.
