The National Monuments Service's description
Possible enclosure described by O'Hare (2000, 87) as follows; 'During the course of an aerial flight undertaken early in July 1987, the author noted the presence of a possible circular enclosure within the interior of the possible church (KE039-014001-) enclosure (KE039-014004-), and situated immediately to the south-west of Nohoval Church and Graveyard (KE039-014003-). There appears however, to be no surface indication of the enclosure'.
