The National Monuments Service's description

On a W-facing slope at the S end of Glasgeivnagh Hill and within and extensive multiperiod field system (CL010-064001-). A subrectangular enclosure (c. 40m E-W; c. 37m N-S) defined by a partially grassed-over stone wall. The W side and portion of the N and S sides are overlain by a more modern wall visible on Digital Globe (2011-2013) and on OSi MapGenie orthophotography (2013-2018). Possible pens occupy the NE and SE corners. A cairn (CL010-064057-) lies c. 160m to the SW.
