The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on the N-facing slopes of Knocknabro. Indicated as a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 25m), skirted by a road at E, on the 1894 and 1846 OS 6-inch maps. It is not visible at ground level. This is probably one of the 'cathairiní' on John Moynihan's land which was recorded by the Rev. W. Ferris in the 1940s (WFP).
