This ring-ditch house lies about 40m N of the path leading up to the fort, some 100m WSW of the public road. It measures 10.7m in diameter over a ditch up to 2.7m in breadth by 0.3m in depth. The ditch is narrowest, and shallowest, around the uphill (W) side. An entrance hollow opens into the ditch on the E, where there are also traces of a low external bank.
