The National Monuments Service's description
In a low-lying position N and NE of cashel (RO006-091----). An area of c. 40 acres (c. 16 ha) contains field walls consisting of grass-covered earth and stone banks (Wth 1-2m; H 0.5m). S of an E-W stream are three rectangular fields (dims. c. 20m x 30m to c. 40m x 30m) which appear to be coeval with the cashel. Other field walls are attached to the cashel at NE (L 25m), E (L c. 100m) and SW (L 23m). N of the stream the walls are more fragmentary, but the walls appear to converge on cashel (RO006-091002-).
