The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a S-facing slope in an area of rocky grazing. Listed as ‘Enclosure’ in the SMR (1992) and the RMP (1996). On inspection in 1998 this was found to be a subrectangular enclosure (diam. c. 37m) defined by a drystone wall of apparently modern date with several gaps and two animal pens in the interior, one at NW and the second in NE.
