The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a level landscape. The parch-mark of a regular circular enclosure (int. diam. c. 10m) defined by two slight fosses or drains (ext. diam. c. 23m) is visible only on Apple Maps which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. The outer feature is not clearly visible NE-SE, and the parch-marks of drains from a regular but unmapped field system attach to the outer feature at SW and N. It was first reported by Noel Meehan.
