The National Monuments Service's description
In low-lying flat grassland on the valley bottom with good views in all directions. This enclosure is marked on the Grand Jury Map as being a 'Rath'. The field has been reclaimed and the monument levelled, though it was discernible when inspected in 1987 as a roughly circular, artificially flat area (diam. c. 25m).
