A castle belonging to the De Vaux family is thought to have stood on this natural mound, which is around 12 metres in height and surrounded by a ditch which is between 4.0 and 8.0 metres wide and 1.0 to 1.5 metres deep.
Around the summit is a stone and earth bank measuring approximately 1.0 metre high, enclosing an area of around 32.0 metres north to south by around 36.0 metres along the north wall. Within this embankment are traces of stonework which formed the foundations of the castle.
