It is an overgrown circular area (diam. 47m N-S; 45m E-W) defined by an earthen bank separated by a fosse from an outer flat-topped bank (at NNW: Wth of base 6m; int. H 3.3m; ext. H 2.8m) that has a smaller bank on its outer edge, and an external fosse (at NNW: Wth of top 4; Wth of base 1.7m; ext. D 1.2m) W-N-E. There is an outer field bank at the base of the outer face of the outer bank ESE-SW. The entrance through the inner bank (Wth of base 2.5m) and causeway (Wth of top 2.7m; H 0.75m) are at S where the outer bank has been removed, and there is a NE-SW road outside the monument SE-S.
