The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on a S-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Clydagh River. A rectangular area (8.5m N-S; 4.4m E-W) defined by a grass-covered bank of earth and stone (Wth 0.9m; H 0.5m). A large boulder is incorporated into the bank at NE. There is an entrance (Wth 0.5m) in the centre of the W side. The interior slopes steeply down to the S.
