The National Monuments Service's description
In lowlying coastal pasture, located at the N end of a linear mound (SL010-032----). According to local tradition, this roughly circular depression (diam. 8m; D 0.4m) is a blocked up access hole to a souterrain. The field within which the souterrain and the mound (SL010-032001-) are located is known locally as the 'fort field'.
