The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in rough hill grazing on an E-facing slope, the remains consist of a horseshoe-shaped mound (c.12m NE-SW, H c. 0.5m) with an open area (L 4.5m) facing a small river that flows down to the E. Burnt brittle stones are exposed in several parts of the mainly grass-covered mound, especially close to the bank of the river (pers. comm. C. Murphy).
