The National Monuments Service's description
This record was formerly classed as an 'enclosure possible' in both the SMR (1990) and the RMP (1997). According to the 'Castleisland District Archaeological Survey' (March 1990), the name 'fortfield' and the description given by the landowner suggests that 'there was a ringfort type enclosure here' (SMR file).
