This defensive homestead, measuring 21.9 metres in diameter from north to south, consists of a raised circular platform that rises between 1.3 and 4 metres above the surrounding ground. The platform is encircled by an earthen bank that reaches heights of up to 0.85 metres, though erosion has taken its toll on the outer face in several places. A 4-metre gap in the bank, positioned between the east and east-southeast, serves as what was likely the original entrance; a gentle, constant slope leads up to this opening from the outside.

The strategic placement of this ringfort immediately above a stream to the south-southwest would have provided its inhabitants with a reliable water source whilst occupying reasonably good pasture land. The surrounding higher hills, however, limit the views from the site, suggesting that panoramic surveillance wasn’t the primary concern when selecting this location. Instead, the focus appears to have been on practical considerations such as water access, agricultural potential, and the natural defensive advantages offered by the drumlin’s elevation.

A later addition to the site comes in the form of a lime kiln, built directly into the outer face of the bank on the east-northeast side. This industrial feature represents the ringfort’s continued use long after its original defensive purpose had become obsolete, demonstrating how these ancient structures were often repurposed by subsequent generations. The kiln would have been used to produce quicklime, an essential material for building mortar and agricultural soil improvement, showing how this Iron Age monument continued to serve the local community well into more recent centuries.
