The National Monuments Service's description
Located in a large arable field c. 217m E of a triple-ditched enclosure (DU015-058----), the ring-ditch lies c. 570m S and SE of a complex of enclosures and ring-ditches in the townland of Springhill. The ring-ditch is visible on Google Earth imagery (24 June 2018). The site is circular in plan (ext. diam. c. 5.8m) defined by a ditch (Wth <1.m). There is no evidence for an entrance gap through the ditch. Compiled by: Tom Condit Uploaded on: 26 April 2021
