This is an amazingly well preserved but overgrown univallate IA round and is situated on the east slope of Tregonning hill. It is approximately 90.0 metres by 80.0 metres with a rampart up to 2.6 metres high and a ditch 1.5 metres deep. Within the fort [but very hard to see] are the remains of three huts, one 28 ft in diameter at the centre and two close to the NW rampart. There is a very well preserved field system next to the round.
