A rock lies in the middle of the entrance, in line with the external edge the bank. There is also a cattle gap in the bank at W. Some rocks have been dumped into the fosse at N. A NE-SW field boundary may have been incorporated into the bank at NE. A second field boundary, on an E-W axis, extends to W from the bank at NW. There is a limekiln (KE059-044----) c. 80m to the NE.
