This fort is situated on the top of Cocleroy, which is girt with rocky scarps along its W flank, and elsewhere with steep slopes. Oval on plan, the fort measures 125m from NW to SE by 60m transversely (0.54ha) within a wall about 2.1m in thickness, and there is a second concentric wall protecting the NW end; numerous facing-stones can be seen along the lines of both. The entrance is on the ESE and at least four ring-ditch houses can be seen within the interior, three at the rear of the rampart on the NE and the fourth on the S.
