The National Monuments Service's description
In an area of gently undulating pasture. Shown on the 1837 OS 6-inch maps as a small circular embanked enclosure, and on the 1930 edition as a hachured area (diam. c. 10-15m); it is named ‘Lisbeg’ on both map editions. This has been levelled; there are no remains visible at ground level.
