The National Monuments Service's description
On a hillock in pasture. A report in 1975 (SMR file) noted that this raised subcircular area (62.7m N-S; 57.8m E-W) was enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone with an external fosse. In addition, traces of an internal fosse were visible at SE and at S. These features are no longer visible and the monument is defined by a scarp (H 0.6m). The original entrance is not recognisable.
