It aligns with the ditch in the field on the north side of the wall. It is about 1.1 metre high by 1.5 metres wide and 0.7 metres deep, less towards the apex. The north side is overgrown, the south side by the road is neat and narrower, about 0.9 metres wide and arched with a flat capstone. Other details: Site Inventory Map (1) 009.
