The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on slight S-facing slope in gently undulating pasture. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 26m) enclosed by a bank of rubble limestone (Wth 1.6m; int. H 0.4m). The original entrance is not recognisable. There is no fosse visible at ground level. The bank is made of rubble limestone with frequent larger boulders throughout. No extant portions of walling are visible and the bank is denuded and spread out in all areas. A souterrain (SL013-055002-) runs under the bank at NW.
