On elevated pasture with wide views and within a multiperiod field system (CL005-115001-). A semicircular area (c. 34m E-W; c. 21m N-S) defined by a grassed-over wall is visible on Digital Globe (2011-2013) and was noted by Ros Ó Maoldúin. It is bounded at its N (straight) side by a field boundary and may continue past the boundary. The enclosure abuts a cashel (CL005-078----) at S.
