Description
A subrectangular enclosure, about 40m north-south by 24m, rests on steep natural slopes on the south & east, defined elsewhere by a rampart/stone revetted wall; on the north and west a second, similar but ditched, circuit runs about 12-16m from the first, with a third section of rampart & ditch on the northern side only.
Obscurred by recent field walls.
