The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on level pasture. The monument is heavily masked by dense scrub. Sub-oval area (diam. 22m N-S; 21.7m E-W) enclosed by an earth-and-stone bank. The bank (int. H 0.68m; ext. H 0.68-0.82m; Wth. 0.9-1.3m) is best preserved from NNE to NNW. There is a break in the bank at S (Wth. 2.7m). The interior slopes gently down to the S. The monument and an area of scrub to S has been enclosed by a stone wall which runs immediately to N, E and W and c. 30m to S of the monument, creating a trapezoidal buffer between two fields.
