The National Monuments Service's description
Within a field system (GA082-097001-) and c. 100m to the N of a cashel (GA082-097002-). Aerial reconnaissance by Markus Casey revealed this very poorly preserved roughly circular enclosure (33m N-S; 30m E-W), which is defined by a grassed-over stony bank (Wth 2.5m; H 0.5m) from NNW through E to SSE; elsewhere only the inner face is visible a rocky scarp. A gap (Wth 3m) at E may be original.
