The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, located 5m to SE of an enclosure (DG103-078001-) in gently undulating terrain broken by seams of limestone bedrock. Very slightly raised, circular area (diam. 5.5m) defined on the perimeter by remnants of a stone wall. The wall is poorly defined and is evident as a low, moss- and grass-covered rise (Wth c. 0.7m; ext. H 0.4m) from which occasional large stones protrude. Irregular-shaped limestone blocks protrudes from the grass immediately to E and S of the house site, some at least of which appear to be bedrock.
