The rectangular earthwork measures approximately 18 metres north to south and 25 metres east to west, its boundaries marked by the remnants of a levelled bank. Though time has worn down these features considerably, careful observation reveals the bank's outline; roughly 7 metres wide, standing just 30 centimetres high on the interior and a mere 10 centimetres on the exterior. The defensive ditch, or fosse, that once protected the site survives as a shallow depression about 6 metres wide and only 10 centimetres deep.

Beyond the primary enclosure, evidence suggests this was once a more complex defensive structure. Additional outer banks, measuring 17.5 metres wide, run along the northern and southern sides of the site, rising 35 centimetres on their inner edges and 15 centimetres on the outer. Along the northern edge only, archaeologists have identified what may be an outer fosse, a substantial feature at 13 metres wide and 40 centimetres deep. This asymmetrical arrangement of defences might indicate the site's builders considered threats from the north more likely, or perhaps the southern approach was naturally more defensible.

The site doesn't stand in isolation; two ringforts occupy nearby hilltops, one 160 metres to the northwest and another 230 metres to the northeast. This cluster of fortified sites hints at the strategic importance of this area during the medieval period, when such earthworks served as defended homesteads for local lords and their households. While the banks and ditches have been largely levelled by centuries of agricultural activity, their ghostly outlines in the pasture offer a tangible connection to the people who once sought safety behind these earthen walls.
