The National Monuments Service's description
Marked as a small copse on the 1840 and 1927 eds. Of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on a gentle S-facing slope. Circular area (diam. 34.8m NE-SW; 33.3m N-S) defined by a slight earthen bank (Wth 3-3.5m; int. H 0.2-0.5m; ext. H 0.4m-0.7m) and a slight external ditch (Wth of top 3-3.5m; ext. D 0.1-0.3m). It has no visible entrance, but a smaller enclosure (diam. 14.2m NW-SE) is attached to the SW. This is defined by a similar bank and outer ditch, with the bank between the two enclosures removed. All the trees except one have been removed.
