The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on a SW-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Flesk River. A circular area (diam. 23m) defined by an inner and outer row of upright contiguous stone slabs (T 1.4m; H 1.1m) which is infilled with stones and clay W-NE and by a low similar-type wall NE-SW which protrudes intermittently above the surface of the bog. No enclosing element is visible SW-W where the bog appears to be deeper. The NW arc is cut (D 0.75m) into the upslope to create a level interior. There is a hut site (KE076-042003-) in the S sector. There are relict field walls (KE076-042005-) immediately to the NW and there is an enclosure (KE076-042004-) c. 25m to the SE.
