The oval, banked and ditched enclosure at Dan-y-Coed measures about 42m east-west by 30m, and has a south-west facing entrance fronted by a roughly 40m ditched approachway, whose ditches appear to define dependant enclosures, intersecting with those of the Woodside encosure, set about 60m to the north (Nprn304414).

Near total excavation demonstrated an extended occupation sequence, involving circular and four-post structures, dated from radio-carbon and material assemblage to the 2nd century BC through to the 2nd century AD, with later, rectangular structures possibly belonging to the Roman period.
