The National Monuments Service's description

Within a large enclosure (TS060-043001-). Cahill (1982) describes it as 'Extensive remains of a large stone and earthen enclosure. Foundations of stone church; also other buildings and internal subdivisions traceable. Site completely overgrown'. There is no evidence to suggest that there was a church within the enclosure, Cahill's reference is confused with the church in Ballinamona townland (TS060-064003-). However, Cahill's description does suggest that a number of building foundations were apparent when the monument was visited in the early 1980s. According to local information some levelling took place at this monument subsequently. There are now no building foundations visible at ground level.
