The National Monuments Service's description
Some 20m to the SSW of a cashel (GA112-058001-). Only the N half of this small circular drystone-built enclosure (diam. c. 16) is visible. It is defined by a low stony bank (Wth 2.2m; H 0.2m). A field wall cuts across it from E to W and no visible surface trace of the enclosing element survives to the S of it. (GASAP Roll 243: 29)
