The National Monuments Service's description
Marked only on the 1915 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a curved field boundary (C c. 35m S-N), and situated towards the top of a S-facing slope. A section (L 5.5m) of the outer facing stones of a cashel wall at NW is visible under the E drystone wall of a N-S laneway which circumscribes a circular grass-covered area S-N (diam. c. 30m), but no other evidence of the monument is visible. Rath (RO048-124----) is c. 130m to the WSW, earthwork (RO048-123----) is c. 180m to the NW, and enclosure (RO048-126----) is c. 130m to the NE.
