The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on slight rise, on slight S-facing slope, in gently undulating pasture. Roughly circular area (dims. 26.5m E-W; 22m N-S) enclosed by a rubble limestone wall (Wth 0.6m; H 1.2m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. The wall is roughly faced and un-coursed and is similar to other field walls in the area. From NE-SE the edge of the site is defined by a N-S orientated drystone field wall. A break (Wth 2m) in the wall at SE marks the position of the present entrance.
