The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a fairly level landscape on the plateau of the S bank of a WSW-ENE portion of the Rive Boyne which is c. 300m to the N. This is a teardrop-shaped cropmark (diam. c. 35m N-S; 30m E-W) defined by a single fosse (Wth c. 2m) that is visible on Apple Maps (2018). It is not depicted on the 1836 or 1908 editions of the OS 6-inch map although it was on the demesne of Beau Park House which is c. 600m to the ENE.
