The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a level low-lying landscape. In July 2018 a drone-mounted camera operated by Páid Bates (Skypix Aerial Works) recorded an image of the cropmark of a D-shaped enclosure (dims c. 40m NW-SE; c. 30m NE-SW) defined by a single fosse feature and with the straight side at SW where it is most visible. No entrance feature is visible and the defining fosse feature is very faint at NE.
