In pasture, on a ridge overlooking Lough Gowra and within a field system (SL040-063001-). An oval area (int. diam. 21.5m x 19m) enclosed by a ruinous stone wall (Wth 1.5m; H 0.4m; ext. H 0.4m) which is topped by a stone field boundary wall SW-N. Stones and rock outcrops were noted in the interior. Attached to the E edge is an oval stone-built annexe (int. diam. 13m x 11m) (SL040-068002-) with ruinous walls (int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.7m; Wth 1.3m) and an uneven interior.
