The site occupies a terrace that ends dramatically at a steep limestone cliff face just 10 metres to the north, whilst to the southeast, the ground rises sharply towards the ridge summit, where both a hillfort and cairn stand as testament to the area’s long history of human occupation.

The enclosure itself forms a rough oval, measuring 27 metres east to west and 22.5 metres north to south, its boundaries marked by the remains of a stone wall now reduced to a low, moss-covered rise between one and one and a half metres wide. Though time has taken its toll, the wall’s structure remains visible; large and medium stones still protrude through the vegetation, and along the southeastern to western sections, an internal scarp rises up to 1.2 metres high, whilst the exterior sits almost level with the surrounding ground. The interior space slopes gently downward from south to north, appearing slightly sunken, perhaps from centuries of use or natural settling.

Within the enclosure, archaeological evidence suggests this wasn’t merely an empty space. Along the northern wall, a line of sod-covered stones traces what appears to be a small trapezoidal structure, roughly 3 metres by 2 metres, which may have served as an animal pen or simple dwelling. A narrow gap in the northern wall, just 1.4 metres wide, aligns perfectly with a natural gully that provides the only manageable route down the otherwise precipitous escarpment; a strategic placement that suggests the enclosure’s builders understood both defence and accessibility. Today, parts of the original wall have been incorporated into more recent field boundaries, particularly along the northeastern to southeastern sections, showing how this ancient site continued to shape the landscape long after its original purpose was forgotten.
