The National Monuments Service's description
On an E and S-facing slope. An area of about 2acres (c. 0.75 ha) contains at least three grass-covered rectangular plots (dims c. 15m x c. 20m) on the S side of a sunken E-W lane (RO049-013002-) (Wth of base 3m; D 0.7-0.8m; L c. 50m). No house sites can be identified other than the stone-walled houses marked on the 1837 and 1915 eds. of the OS 6-inch map, which are now abandoned and do not appear to relate to the road.
