The National Monuments Service's description

Running to S and W of a gatehouse (KD030-007----). Only intermittent sections of a rubble limestone wall with a very slight base batter (H 3.5m along E) survive. Portions may be incorporated into later farm building along the S and have been levelled along the W. The original extent of the bawn is no longer clearly traceable at ground level.
