The National Monuments Service's description
On low lying ground, referred to locally as a 'raheen' and described as a roughly rectangular area defined by a very wet moat (pers. comm. Chris Corlett). No visible trace of this at ground level. The granite upper stone of a disc quern was found here and is currently in private possession. (SMR file).
