The National Monuments Service's description
In undulating countryside. Marked on the 1841 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a subcircular enclosure (max. diam. c. 60m N-S). A circular area defined by an earthen bank (Wth c. 2.5m) survives from S-NE. No other visible surface remains.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Laois' (Dublin Stationery Office, 1995) compiled by P. David Sweetman, Olive Alcock and Bernie Moran. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
