The National Monuments Service's description
In undulating upland terrain on the lower SW slopes of Carrigadoon Hill, under grass. Identified on an aerial photograph taken in 1973 (GSI S.500/499) as a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 60-70m) with a curving field boundary forming the E quadrant. This field boundary has been removed and the enclosure is not visible at ground level. The terrain is very rough and appears to be an unlikely location for an enclosure.
