A single building is built along the inside of the chord of a D-shaped enclosure some 475m SW of Slack's Tower; it is situated on the E side of a sike amongst rigged ground. The building measures 12.5m from NE to SW by 6.5m over low grassy banks spread to 2m in thickness and 0.3m in height. Its SE side is subsumed in the more substantial bank of the enclosure which is spread to some 0.75m in height and 2.5m in thickness. The enclosure measures about 25m from NE to SW by 15m transversely and there is an entrance in the NE.
