The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on boulder-strewn, heath-covered terrain on the S facing slope of Two Rock Mountain. Marked on the 1843 OS 6-inch map as a semicircular enclosure (int. diam. c. 70m) with hut-sites (DU025-040003-, DU025-040004-) in the interior and a ring of stones (diam c. 20m) with a SE annexe c. 35m to the N (DU025-040002-). Field walking has failed to identify these features on the ground.
