The National Monuments Service's description
In rough heather-clad hill pasture, on a S-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Clydagh River. A rectangular area (9m N-S; 5.6m E-W) defined by a low grass-covered bank of earth and stone (Wth 0.5m; H 0.3m). There is a break in the bank at W which may indicate an entrance. There is a hut site (KE076-009002-) in the SW corner. Another enclosure (KE076-009----) lies c. 140m to the NNW.
