The National Monuments Service's description
In undulating terrain with River Moyle at base of slope to E and SE. A linear feature running N-S of graveyard (TS077-036----) appears to be an old road (Wth 4m) defined by a bank (W bank Wth 4.3m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 0.68m; E bank Wth 6.6m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 0.59m) on either side. The trackway runs from the graveyard to the top of the SE angle of the field, a distance of c. 100m. It appears to connect with a hollow-way, hachured on the 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map but now levelled, associated with a ringfort (TS077-038----).
