The National Monuments Service's description
Geophysical survey (Licence no. 12R127) undertaken by the Discovery Programme as part of the ‘Late Iron Age and “Roman” Ireland’ project identified a D-shaped enclosure (43m NW-SE x 26m NE-SW) which is defined by a ditch (1m - 3m in width) located south of an 18th century field system. A number of possible pit-like features were interpreted along its circuit (Dowling 2014, 12).
