The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in rolling coastal pasture within the demesne lands of Tanrego House. Raised circular area (diam. 44m) defined by a scarp (H 0.8m - 1.1m). The area thus defined, which is slightly domed in profile, has been planted with coniferous trees. This site may be a landscape feature rather than an antiquity.
