The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, straddling the break of slope on the S side of an E-W ridge. Not marked on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map. Shown on the 1913 as a subrectangular area (c. 30m E–W; c. 25m N–S) defined on the W and N sides by a roughly L-shaped hachured bank, on the E side by a N-S field boundary/townland boundary, and open to S. The L-shaped bank has been levelled but the slightly raised outline of the enclosure can still be traced.
