The National Monuments Service's description
This possible enclosure is not indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map or on the 25-inch plan. It is indicated on the 1930 OS 6-inch edition as an arc of hachuring (L c. 37m) curving N−SE in the SW corner of a rectangular field –it is unclear if it represented an enclosure. This area has been disturbed by quarrying and there is no evidence of an enclosure at ground level.
