The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on the SSW facing slopes of Two Rock Mountain in terrain which is boulder strewn and partly peat covered. An aerial photograph taken in 1971 (FSI: 3 690/691) shows traces of an oval enclosure (80m N-S, 50m E-W). Field walking has failed to detect this feature on the ground.
