The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in a large field of pasture some 460m NW of Killone Lough. An oval enclosure (c. 40m N-S; c. 30m E-W) visible as a cropmark on a Google Earth aerial photograph taken in 2011. A slightly raised area defined by a scarp from NW to NE is visible on a Bing aerial image (http://binged.it/1IyrN15) taken in May 2015. Two ringforts (CL041-051---- and CL041-052----) lie in the same field, 150m and 260m to the S respectively.
