The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on top of a low rise, in gently undulating pasture, with good views in all directions. In centre of ringfort (WM020-039----) are the remains of a subrectangular-shaped hut site defined by a hollow enclosed by a slight sod-covered bank. A gap in the SSW side probably represents the entrance, whilst another at E is likely due to disturbance.
