The National Monuments Service's description

Situated at the S end of a low N-S ridge. A circular grass-covered feature (ext. diam. c. 50m) that is probably defined by a wide and low earthen bank that is incorporated into a field bank and townland boundary with Tullylough SW-NW is visible only on Google Earth (07/02/2019) but the enclosure and its bank can be confirmed from LiDAR coverage. It is traversed by a relict E-W field bank towards the perimeter at S, and it was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére.
