The National Monuments Service's description
In tillage. A roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 33m N-S; c. 37m E-W) visible as a cropmark on Google Earth (imagery date 14 July 2018), identified and reported by Simon Dowling and Edward O'Riordan. It is truncated by a townland boundary which runs NW-SE through the NE quadrant and by the road which runs immediately N of, and parallel to, the townland boundary. There is a faint trace of an old field boundary, visible as a cropmark, running NNW-SSE from the SW quadrant.
