The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a gentle S-facing slope. An area of bare limestone karst with grass and scrub covering about 60 acres (c. 24 ha) contains the grass-covered remains of stone walls creating fields that are roughly rectangular in form (dims c. 50m x c. 100m). There are some smaller fields sometimes with evidence of lazy bed cultivation but no house sites were identified.
