The site measures 51 metres east to west and 42 metres north to south, and is covered in grass and scrub. What makes this location particularly interesting is its well-preserved moat system that defines its boundaries. The northern moat stretches 6.5 metres wide and reaches depths of 0.7 to 0.8 metres, whilst the southern moat is even more substantial at 8 metres wide, with an internal depth of 1.4 metres and an external depth of 1 metre.

The eastern side of the earthwork also features a visible moat, measuring 6 metres wide with varying depths; 0.3 metres on the interior and 1.1 metres on the exterior. The western moat, however, is hidden beneath a later field bank and laneway that runs north to south. A small channel, or leat, feeds water into the moat system at the southeastern corner, suggesting this was once a functioning water-filled defensive feature.

Archaeological investigations have attempted to uncover more about this intriguing site and its surroundings. Testing carried out in 2007 on a triangular area immediately to the west yielded no related artefacts or features. Similarly, excavations conducted in 2013 about 50 to 100 metres to the northeast and east produced no finds that could shed light on the earthwork’s origins or purpose. Despite these investigations, the site remains something of a mystery, its rectangular form and substantial moats hinting at a defensive or high-status function that has yet to be fully understood.
