The National Monuments Service's description
Indicated as a large subcircular enclosure (diam. c. 65m N-S; c. 74m E-W) with a public road running NW-SE through the centre. On the 1900 revision only the S portion, S of the road, is indicated. Satellite imagery suggests that both the N and S portions of the enclosure are now levelled, though the outline may be traceable at ground level.
