Located towards the bottom of a NE-facing slope. This is a circular overgrown area (diam. 29.5m NW-SE; 27m NE-SW) that slopes down steeply to the NE (H 2m). It is defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth of base 3.4-5.8m; int. H 0.1m at NE (downslope) to 0.3m; at SW; ext. H 1m at SE to 1.3m at NE), with an outer fosse (at SW: Wth of top 4.3m; Wth of base 1.4m; ext. D 0.9m) SSE-NW. The entrance (Wth of base 2.3m) is at ENE.
