The National Monuments Service's description
In a built up farmyard just N of Fearaun House. Shown on the 1st ed. (1839) of the OS 6-inch map as a small circular enclosure (est. dia. c. 18m) encircled by a band of vegetation, but not recorded on subsequent OS mapping. No visible surface trace survives. May have been an ornamental landscape feature associated with Fearaun House.
