This fort occupies the summit of a conical hill, the E side of which has recently been quarried away. Roughly oval on plan, it measures about 37m by 29m within a wall now reduced to a stony bank 2.3m to 4m in thickness. In the interior there are the wasted traces of a circular, stone-walled enclosure, 9.5m in diameter internally, which may be the remains of a heavily-robbed dun. Outside the fort four stretches of walling, possibly the remains of outworks, can be seen, one of which, on the S, encloses what may be a hut platform. A further hut has been built into the fort wall on the SW.
