A motte and bailey, where the mound appears to be a thickening of one angle of the rampart around a sub-rectangular enclosure, about 26m north-east by south-west by 18m resting, on the north-west, on steep slopes above the Usk river-plain.
The site is thought to have been reduced by land-slips and is obscurred by a road on the south-east.
The site has produced 12-13th c. pottery.
