The National Monuments Service's description

In pasture, on a SE-facing slope. Sub-oval area (dims. 44m NNW-SSE; 24m NE-SW) defined by levelled bank (Wth 16m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 1.1m). External fosse (basal Wth 3m; total Wth 11m; D 0.55m) SE-W-NE-E appears to tail off to SE into corner of field, as per latest edition OS six-inch map. Possible traces of outer bank. Interior slopes down gently to centre. Monument incorporated into field as pasture and appears to have been levelled as part of a land reclamation scheme c. 1969 (OPW files). Ringfort (TS070-024----) and enclosure (TS070-024001-/5NEW) are located c. 185m and 220m to N respectively.
