The National Monuments Service's description

On examination of the 2005 aerial photograph it was noted that a circular cropmark was visible in the general vicinity of the souterrain [CO071-159----]..... which may represent a possible enclosure/ringfort (pers. comm. Annette Quinn, Tobar Archaeological Services).
