The National Monuments Service's description
In ringfort (WM025-130----) adjoining the interior of the bank at S and SSW are the stone foundations of two rectangular-shaped house sites which are conjoined by a short, steep scarp running N-S between them. A low, narrow earth and stone bank running N-S extends across the interior of the ringfort from the pair of house sites to the single house at N.
See attached plan and profile of monument surveyed and drawn by the ASI.
