The National Monuments Service's description
In the grounds of Woodview House. Only the W portion of the monument is depicted on the revised 1900 OS 6-inch map. The monument was transected by a townland boundary running NW-SE and the portion E of the boundary appears to have been levelled. The remaining roughly D-shaped area (int. dims. 22m NW-SE; 12m E-W) is enclosed by a slight bank and an external fosse from NW-W-S-SE.
