The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pastureland sloping to the S. Noted on current OSi aerial imagery (Digitalglobe 2011-2013), this subrectangular enclosure (c. 40m NE-SW; c. 29m ENE-WSE) is visible within a relict field system (GA058-099002-). It is defined by a collapsed and grassed-over stone spread (Wth c. 2.5m; H c. 0.5m). Field walls extending off it at NE, SE, SW and NW appear to be associated with the field system. A post and wire runs N-S immediately outside its W side. A possible cashel (GA058-099003-) lies c. 125m to the SW.
