The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a slight S-facing slope. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) defined by a single fosse is visible on a digital image captured with a drone-mounted camera by Colin Byrne on 22/07/2021. The perimeter is very slight W-N, and there may be an entrance at SE. It is also faintly visible on Apple Maps (c. 2018) and Goolge Earth (21/07/2021).
