In an area of undulating rough pasture and limestone outcrops, and within a field system (CL008-057001-). A subcircular cashel (diam. c. 26m) defined by a low, grassed-over stone wall, overlain by a later field wall in the SE sector, is visible on Digital Globe (2011-2013) and was noted by Conn Herriott. A second cashel (CL008-155----) lies c. 50m to the SE.
