The National Monuments Service's description

Not indicated on any edition of the OS maps, this possible ringfort was discovered in 2013 in the course of a review of LiDAR data where it is visible as a raised enclosure (diam. c. 40m NW-SE x c. 30m NE-SW) (pers. comm. Dr Steve Davis, UCD). A possible barrow (SL008-199----) adjoins it at the NW.
