A single-ditched defended enclosure enclosing a prominent projecting spur overlooking the coast at Pengarreg. The enclosure measures approx. 131m x 91m; its northern corner is angled, whilst the remainder of the enclosure is curvilinear. It is likely that the site is an Iron Age defended enclosure similar to the others which overlook this coastal inlet.
