The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on a level area on a gentle E-facing slope which falls towards the Gweestion River.
Not shown on any edition of the OS 6-inch mapping. Listed in the SMR (1991) and the RMP (1997) as a possible enclosure based on a feature visible in an aerial photo (SMR file: GSI M 689 -90; Roll 231, pr. 11). This area has undergone land reclamation and the field boundaries shown on the 1931 OS 6-inch map have been removed. There is no visible trace of an enclosure at ground level.
