The National Monuments Service's description

This is a circular field, 35m in diameter, which is formed by denuded stone walls, constructed of upright slabs and boulders, which are now partially sod-covered. Occasionally a double row of uprights occur. The wall has a maximum width of 1.4m, and attained a height of 1. The southwest side of the enclosure is formed by a ridge of rock outcrop.

A possible hut site (KE061-004002-) was noted in the southwestern extremity of the field, where a sub-rectangular area of sod-covered collapsed stone, 6m north-south by 3.5m east-west and 1m high occurs. No entrance was noted.
