The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on a S-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Clydagh River. A D-shaped area (dims. 8.7m N-S) defined by a roughly constructed drystone wall (T 0.6m at base; H 1.3m) which narrows (T 0.3m) at the top with a straight S side (L 9m). There is a large stone incorporated into the wall at NE and at E. The interior is cut into the upslope along the N arc. Rubble is scattered downslope to the S.
