The National Monuments Service's description
Marked as a circular enclosure on the 1837 (diam. c. 30m) and 1915 (ext. diam. c. 50m) eds of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on the shoulder of a gentle SW-facing slope in an area with field walls. It is not visible at ground level in pasture but was probably a cashel. The possible cashel (RO048-129----) is c. 130m to the SE.
