The monument comprises a rectilinear or curvilinear earthwork defence system, though its precise chronological attribution remains undetermined from available archaeological evidence. Such enclosures in this region may date from the Iron Age through to the Roman period, though without excavation or datable surface finds, the specific period of construction and use cannot be definitively established.
