The monument comprises the remains of a well-preserved medieval moated homestead. It comprises a rectangular moated site, c 50 x 30m. internally. It is enclosed by a moat, c 15m wide and 1m deep with a pond on the south side, although this is of later date. No internal features are visible, as both platform and moat are overlain by ridge and furrow.

It retains significant archaeological potential, with a strong probability of the presence of intact archaeological deposits and structural evidence.
