The National Monuments Service's description
On the S brow of a limestone plateau in pasture close to a stream. The monument was visited in 1991 (SMR (1989) file) and the fieldworker recorded a circular area (diam. c.20m) enclosed by a stone wall faced with large boulders (Wth. c.1.5; int. H c.1.5m; ext. H c.1.5m). No fosse. The original entrance not recognisable. The site monument is now densely overgrown and inaccessible but appears to be largely intact beneath the overgrowth.
