The National Monuments Service's description

Identified on Digitalglobe satellite imagery (viewed 16 June 2020) by Gaibhin O'Dubhconna. A circular area consisting of an inner enclosure (diam. 10m) and concentric outer enclosure (diam. 20m) defined by a crisp narrow fosse. It is not a typical cropmark, the fosse appears to be very fresh. Possibly a relatively recent feature.
