Situated on a low rise in undulating moorland, this fortified enclosure is roughly oval on plan and measures 30m from NE to SW by 20m transversely (0.05ha) within a heavily robbed wall reduced to a band of rubble up to 7m in thickness. Another band of rubble about 15m outside the wall on the SW quarter is possibly an outwork blocking the easiest line of approach. The entrance is not visible and the interior is clothed in dense gorse and juniper.
