The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture on the NE-facing slope of a N-S ridge, on the E side of the Caher valley. A roughly subcircular enclosure (c. 12m E-W; c. 10m N-S), defined by a grassed-over stone wall, is visible on Digital Globe (2011-2013) and on OSi MapGenie (2012-2018). A later field wall abuts the enclosure at S. Noted by Ros Ó Maoldúin. A possible cashel lies c. 45m to the W.
