A sweep of degraded rampart and ditch defines a roughly tear-drop ahaped enclosure, about 68m north-east to south-west by 38m, resting on steep coastal slopes on the north-west: the enclosure circuit serves to isolate a promontory below the coastal slope, as well as Careg Yspar, immediately offshore: it has been suggested that a pot sherd recovered from the enclosure is Roman (Davies 1980, 520).
