The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the top of a SE-facing slope overlooking the NE-SW River Bann with the stream c. 700m to the SE. The cropmark of a subrectangular enclosure (dims. c. 100m N W-SE; c. 110-160m NE-SW) defined by a single ditch feature is visible on aerial photograph (CUCAP: BGF022-023). The enclosure appears to be confined within the bounds of an existing quadrilateral field and relating closely to its boundaries. It is probably a small enclosed wood and post-medieval in date.
