The National Monuments Service's description
Five upright stakes (L 0.65m; diam. 0.06m), three of which form an arc with two outlying stakes. The interval between stakes varied from 0.7-1.16m. These stakes were worked on all surfaces with square or trapezoidal cross-sections and wedge or pencil points. The wood was in very good condition and the site may be modern.
