Probably an artificial mound although some rock outcrop is evident on the sides. It has a flat top 4m in diameter but it is believed that there was formerly a depression here which was filled in some time ago. The S side is very steep due to the slope of the hill. On the N side is a fosse-like depression. A low earth/stone bank runs perpendicularly across this to the mound. Outside the fosse is a low outer scarp or bank with an inner stone facing.

Internal diam. c. 20m. An irregular semi-circular scatter of earth and small stones is probably the W side of the single-ringed enclosure shown on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map.

A small portion of the W side of the enclosing bank of this feature survives to a height of 1.75m internally. The bank is earthen but contains some of stone. It is probably the remains of a destroyed ringfort. It is situated on the summit of a small E-W ridge above the River Swilly in good land.
