Description
In wet, low-lying pasture. A raised subcircular area (44.2m N-S; 41.8m E-W) enclosed by a substantial bank of earth and stone (Wth 6.3m; H 0.7-1.2m) and a wide, partially waterlogged, intervening fosse (Wth 7.6m; D 1.45m) with an outer bank (Wth 6.4m; H 1m) from NNW-N-SE. From SE-S-NNW the latter is no longer visible and the fosse has been largely infilled. A concrete water tank has been built into the inner bank at SW. A break (Wth 2.2m) in the bank at SSE with an accompanying causeway may mark the original entrance. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 16 January 2012

Description
On a gentle SSE-facing slope in pasture. A raised oval area (53.9m NNW-SSE; 35.7m ENE-WSW) enclosed by a wide, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 6.65m; H 0.4-1m) with a shallow, partially waterlogged external fosse (Wth 4.8m; D 0.3m). A depression (Wth 3.8m) in the bank at NE with an accompanying causeway may mark the original entrance. A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded a low platform close to the centre of the interior; it is no longer identifiable. A modern N-S field drain divides the latter into unequal portions.
