The National Monuments Service's description
Notified (6-1-2023) by Ms Faith Bailey. Visible in tillage on Google Earth aerial imagery (July 2021) as the cropmark of a large oval enclosure (est. diams. c. 85m NE-SW; c. 67m). The N-S townland boundary recorded on OS historic mapping (separating Raheenglass to W from Coolafancy to E) ran over the W sector of the monument but has been removed.
