The National Monuments Service's description

On flat pasture 80m N of the townland boundary with Castlelloyd. The enclosure is within the field system (LI024-222----) and 100m WNW of enclosure (LI024-212----). The enclosure is not depicted on OSi historic maps. The enclosure is visible as a circular earthwork on the OSi orthoimage taken 2005-12 and on the Digital Globe orthoimages taken 2011-2013. Identified by Bruff aerial photographic survey in 1986 (Bruff 20.1 AP 4/3621) as a circular enclosure (ext. dims. c. 44m N-S; 48m E-S). There are three internal circular features (Bruff 20.2-4) on the aerial image and later aerial photos that may be hut or ring-barrows sites (Wth c. 6m) within the enclosure. The enclosure is visible on Google Earth orthoimage taken 18/11/2018.
