The National Monuments Service's description
In rough mountain grazing, on a terrace on the E-facing slopes of Nowen Hill with extensive views over the rolling countryside to the E. A circular area (8.8m E-W; 8.5m N-S) is defined by a low earthen bank (Wth 1.2m; H 0.3m) E-S and elsewhere by stones protruding intermittently (H up to 0.3m) from traces of the remains of an earthen bank. Two separate stones (H 1.1m; 1.7m x 0.55m and H 0.85m; 1.2m x 0.5m) are set on the perimeter at NE and SW, respectively, and their long axes are parallel.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
