The National Monuments Service's description
Semi-circular enclosure visible on aerial photograph (GSIAP S341-2, R1/1). On gentle N facing slope at the foot of the Dranagh Mountains with good views to the N. NW side is defined by a steep scarp and remainder defined by a ruined stone wall (diam. c. 46m; H c. 1m; Wth c. 2.5m). Not certain if this is an archaeological monument.
