The Camp occupies an extremely strong position at the north end of a spur. Its defences comprise a single rampart and ditch with traces of a counterscarp bank in places. There is an additional scarp on the north side up to 2.0m in height where the site is weakest. The original entrance is onto the ridge to the south.
The hillfort is very prominent in the landscape and is covered with mature redwoods. Its southern aspect can be viewed from Hoe Lane (running from the A3057 to North Baddesley).
