What is recorded here
Just off the crest of a gentle hill on a S-facing slope, in gently undulating pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure (overall diam. c. 60-70m) on 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map within a small tree plantation (dims. c. 180m NE-SW; c. 90m NW-SE), the monument is not marked on the subsequent 2nd (1906) ed. The enclosure has been levelled however the outline is still visible as scarp (H 0.35m) in the W quadrant and a flattened bank in the NE. The SE sector is defined by a pronounced scarp (H 1.5m) and possible outer fosse (Wth 3.8m) and corresponding curving kink in the earthen townland boundary (Wth 1.9m; int. H 1.75m; ext. H 0.8m).
