The National Monuments Service's description
In rough undulating pastureland surrounded by scrub. Hachured on the 1842 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and partially hachured on the 1920 eds. of the OS 6-inch map. On the latter ed., a field boundary cuts across it from NW-SSW. This roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) is defined by a low, barely visible, scarp (H 0.1m). A later drystone field wall, densely overgrown, overlies its perimeter from W to NNE. The interior is level and featureless and the field wall that crossed it has been levelled.
