The National Monuments Service's description
Located on what might be a slight rise on a fairly level landscape. The cropmark of a small circular enclosure (int. diam. c. 10m) defined by a single continuous fosse (Wth c. 2m) is visible only on Apple Maps which utilises a survey conducted by Blue Sky International during June 2018. It was first reported by Anthony Murphy.
