The National Monuments Service's description
Marked only on the 1915 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35-40m), and situated on a gentle SW-facing slope in an area with field walls. It is not visible at ground level in an overgrown area but is probably a cashel. The cashel (RO052-009----) is c. 110m to the NE.
