The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a fairly level landscape on land that was once part of the demesne of Antylstown House. The cropmark of an arc of a circular enclosure (int. diam. c. 20m) defined by a fosse (Wth c. 3m) is visible ENE-S-SW only on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. It could be truncated slightly by an E-W field bank at N, and it was first reported by Justin Kenny.
