The National Monuments Service's description
In high (above the 600’ contour) rough grazing with wide views to S but higher ground to the N, and within an extensive multiperiod field system (CL009-84001-). Identified by Tom Coffey and Paul Walsh (SMR file). This small subcircular enclosure (4.6m NE-SW; c. 2m NW-SE) is defined by a collapsed wall (H 0.95m) of irregular slabs which appears to be open at the NE.
