The National Monuments Service's description
Visible as a D-shaped feature (ext. dims. c. 40m E-W; c. 25m N-S) truncated by an E-W field wall at S on aerial photograph (CUCAP, K17 W5), and situated towards the top of a S-facing slope. It is not visible at ground level in pasture but it was probably a cashel.
