The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a gentle S-facing slope and on the demesne land of Killabeg House, but it is not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 17m) defined by a single continuous fosse feature (Wth 2-3m) is visible only on Google Earth (14/07/2019). It was first reported by Jean Charles Caillere.
