There are no certain indications of a dun or fort on a low rocky knoll, a favourable position for defence. The summit area is fairly flat, measuring 29.0m NE-SW by 10.0m transversley, though the north-west side appears to have been quarried. Across the north-east end is a low, turf-covered bank of earth and stone, spread to 3.0m wide and 0.6m maximum height; no facing stones can be seen. The illusion of walling on the other sides may be due to vertical living rock exposed or just beneath the turf.
Surveyed at 1:10 000.
