The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a gentle S-facing slope. The cropmark of a small circular enclosure (diam. c. 25m) defined by a continuous fosse is visible on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. Rath (ME017-063----) is c. 150m to the SW. It is also visible on Google Earth (02/07/2018) and faintly on Digital Globe (c. 2013), and was first reported by Anthony Murphy. It was also noted by Jean Chrles Caillère.
