The National Monuments Service's description
On a terrace on a tree-covered NW-facing slope within Glengarriff National Park. A circular area (diam. 8.5m) is defined by a scarp (H 0.4m) faced with stones W-NE and elsewhere by faint traces of a low bank (Wth c. 1m; H c. 0.1m). The level interior is covered with forest debris. Holly and oak trees are growing within and around the enclosure. A second enclosure (CO090-030002-) is c. 20m to the SSE.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
