The National Monuments Service's description
This site was located a farmyard in a field of pasture on a hillslope N of Tully cross. Recent road development adjacent to the site. Furze and bracken densely cover an area which is marked on the 1st edition (1843) map as an enclosure. There is a semi-circular raised area to the E of this site (13m E-W, 15m N-S. H 1.10m). This may have been caused by the building of a concrete block wall which cuts into it.
