This site was not inspected due to its dangerous location, surrounded on all sides by high vertical cliffs. Previous investigations record that the promontory (aligned NE-SW) is enclosed on the landward side by a bank and ditch; the area enclosed measures 60m by 14m. The bank is 6m wide and 0.5m high. In a coastal exposure, the bank was seen to be constructed from soil built over horizontally-coursed slabs. The ditch, 3.5m deep, has a revetted drystone wall against its inner face. Fragments of drystone walling to the SE were thought to be the remains of an enclosure wall around the edge of the promontory.
