The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a slight NE-facing slope. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 45m) defined by a single fosse feature is visible on aerial photographs (WX035-087_1 to _8) taken in 2006, but most of the perimeter is missing S-NW. However, there is an entrance gap at E, which is clearly visible in images taken by Jim Foran with a drone-mounted camera in July 2018 but the perimeter SW-N has eroded away.
