The National Monuments Service's description

On a N-facing slope of the crest of a hill in undulating terrain. Field tilled and planted with beet. Enclosure levelled though a slight rise in the field may indicate the former presence of the monument. It is not marked on the 1st 1840 ed. OS 6-inch map and is indicated on the 2nd 1904-5 ed. as 'Lisnamuck (Site of)'. On an aerial photograph (GB90.AA.03, 16 July 1989) it is visible as the cropmark of a curvilinear enclosure defined by a fosse, with a narrower concentric outer fosse.
