OS 1:10,000 map, (1975)
The summit of a low, rounded knoll, about 350 metres north of Park farmhouse is occupied by the denuded remains of a stone-walled enclosure which may originally have been a dun. Oval on plan, it has measured 8.2 by 6.4 metres within a wall now represented by a grass grown stony bank 3 metres in average thickness and nowhere more than 0.4 metres in height. The position of the entrance is presumably indicated by a gap in the bank on the NE arc measuring about 2.4 metres in width.
