The site consists of rectilinear and curvilinear ditched enclosures of probable Iron Age date, representing settlement or land management activity of the later prehistoric period. Linear trackways visible within and adjoining the enclosure system indicate communication routes and pastoral or agricultural use patterns contemporary with the enclosed areas.
