The National Monuments Service's description
On the crest of a hill, in the field to the N and E of a rath (SL032-148001-). Not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. It appears as an irregularly-shaped enclosure defined by a poorly-defined bank on aerial photographs (IASAP, 3033158-9). This possible enclosure is not visible at ground level.
