The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a small rise, in low-lying pasture, to the immediate N of a river, with good views to W and ESE. In the WNW quadrant of ringfort (WM027-024----) are very vague traces of low banks which may represent house sites. According to the NMI, there is a stone structure within this monument. the outline of this possible house site is visible today on Digital Globe aerial photography.
