A small and very exposed Iron Age promontory fort or "cliff castle" in a spectacular setting. There are the remains of a shallow ditch and bank on the north side of the promontory. Two large stones, one still standing, are presumably mark the entrance to the fort. There are no traces of settlement (hut circles, for example) within the defended area.
