The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in a terrace on a N facing slope of Glencullen Mountain. Shown on the 1843 OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) and as a ring of closely set stones on the 1937 edition. The site has been planted with trees leaving no visible trace above ground (Healy 1975, 1-19).
