The National Monuments Service's description
Visible on an aerial photograph (GSI S 218) as a circular area (est. diam. c. 45m). enclosed by a low bank. The bank is levelled but, according to local information, a large dark patch is visible after ploughing at the location, and small quantities of pottery (17th-century to 19th-century) are occasionally found when the area is ploughed.
