The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on a fairly level landscape. In July 2018 a drone-mounted camera operated by Páid Bates (Skypix Aerial Works) recorded an image of the cropmark of a circular enclosure (int. diam. c. 25m) defined by a single fosse feature which is poorly defined but quite wide (Wth c. 5-8m). An entrance is not identified.
