The National Monuments Service's description

Cropmark of a levelled enclosure possible that is visible on the OSI aerial photographs taken in the year 2000. This possible enclosure site is located approx. 180m to the NE of a levelled bivallate ringfort (TN041-062) that is also clearly visible as a bivalate cropmark on the OSI aerial photographs taken in the year 2000. This possible enclosure is barely visible as a partial curved depression in the field. This curving depression may be the remains of a levelled bank or fosse of the enclosure visible from the south to the southwest side of the possible enclosure.
