The cropmarks of a quadruple ditched fort are visible on aerial photography located on high ground at the head of the Eden Estuary. The fort is oval in shape and is orientated N-S. It measures 80m by 35m internally and 160m by 100m externally. No internal structures are visible. The fort is bisected by a field boundary running N-S and is under cultivation to the W and is tree covered to the E. Only the western half of the fort is visible on aerial photography.
