The National Monuments Service's description
A disused trackway (Wth 3-5m) is traceable E-W (L c. 150m) and is defined on either side by a very low scarp. It forks at its E end; one section heading NE and the other SE. It avoids, passing to the N of, a possible ecclesiastical enclosure (KD003-002001-) containing a church (KD003-002002-) and a graveyard (KD003-002003-) and may have been associated with 'Kilrainy House' to the S.
