The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a fairly level landscape. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 50m) defined by a single fosse feature is visible on Google Earth (14/07/2018), but no entrance is detected. It was first reported by Ciaran McDonnell, and it was also reported by Anthony Murphy.
