The National Monuments Service's description

In wet pasture, on a slightly raised area; lots of drainage channels evident. Sub-rectangular area (dims. 23m NW-SE; 18m NE-SW) defined by scarp (Wth 1.25m; H 0.5m), which is less defined NE-E. Fosse (overall Wth 4.6m; basal Wth 2m; D 0.35m) NW-E-S is choked with grass and occasional rushes. Drainage channel (long-axis ENE-WSW) enters fosse at ESE. Interior has a gentle E-facing slope with an uneven surface. Monument truncated by drainage ditch (Wth 2m) and townland boundary (double ditch) across WSW-sector.
