Located at the SE corner of a large arable field is the southern half of a circular enclosure, one of a number of cropmark enclosures W of Balbriggan. It is clearly visible on Google Earth imagery (24 June 2018). Site bisected by later field boundary with enclosure most clearly visible in arable field to S. It comprises an circular enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35.4m) defined to the S by a ditch (Wth c. 1.3m). Other linear and curvilinear cropmarks to the E and W may be associated with the enclosure.
