Situated on a low-lying hillock on the SE side of the River Dee, this earthwork is roughly rectangular plan, and measures about 50m from NE to SW by 42m transversely (0.2ha) within a stony bank largely reduced to a scarp between 1.5m and 3m in height. This evidently descends into an external ditch which is largely obliterated by cultivation, but measures at least 6m in breadth on the NE where an outer bank some 3.5m in thickness by up to 1m in height rides over the spine of the hillock. The entrance may have been on the SE. The interior is featureless.
