The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on the SW-facing slope of a small E-W drumlin ridge and within view of a house that was known as Drummanbeg House c. 170m SW. It is indicated as a small circular feature on the 1835 and 1907 editions of the OS 6-inch map. This is a circular area (diam. 12.5m N-S; 12m E-W) defined by a low stone wall or earth and stone bank (Wth 1m; ext. H 0.6-1m). The perimeter is planted with mature deciduous trees.
