The National Monuments Service's description
In pastureland to the SW of a turlough. On inspection in December 1982 earthworks were noted to the S of the fulacht fia (GA103-048001-). One was square-shaped in plan and defined by grassed-over walls. On re-inspection in June 1992 the field was planted with oats and no visible surface traces survived.
