The National Monuments Service's description
Visible as a D-shaped enclosure (dims c. 25m E-W; c. 20m N-S) defined by a stone wall on aerial photographs (GSIAP: M 222-3) and associated with abandoned houses which are marked on the 1837 and 1915 eds of the OS 6-inch map. Situated on a S-facing slope, it is not visible at ground level in reclaimed pasture but it is probably post-medieval in date. Cashel (RO045-063----) is c. 100m to the N, and cashel (RO045-066----) is c. 130m to the NE.
