The National Monuments Service's description
This subrectangular structure (int. dims. 5.9m NW-SE; 3.8m NE-SW) has been built against the enclosing element of a possible rath (GA022-122----) at SW. It is defined by traces of a low bank (Wth 2.7m; int. H 0.17m; ext. H 0.15m) most clearly evident along the N and S sides. It may be associated with the rath.
