The National Monuments Service's description
On a hill in an area of rock outcrop and scrubland recently cleared for grazing. Good views to W. Adjoining the fosse of an enclosure (KK009-005001) to N and S are field walls (Wth 1.6m; H 1.3m) employing large blocks of rock outcrop which may be of considerable antiquity. There is a large enclosure (KK009-092----) immediately to the S.
