The National Monuments Service's description

No surface trace visible of rectangular shaped enclosure shown on aerial photographs (GSI N 545/6). The central circular enclosure appears on the ground as a slightly dished shaped mound (diam 20m; max. H 0.75m) most pronounced from E to S with no definite enclosing element. Possibly a barrow but may be a natural feature.
