What is recorded here

Situated on NE facing slope of a high ridge in an area of wet grassland, overlooked by higher ridges and hills. The stream which marks the townland boundary with Knockatee lies 60m to E. Ringfort (WM012-130---) 260m to NW. A raised circular-shaped area (approx. diam. 42m E-W) enclosed by a well preserved earthen bank and deep external fosse. The bank is best preserved in the SE quadrant, and the fosse appears to have been deepened. There is an entrance gap (Wth 2.6m) and causeway across the fosse (Wth 5.4m; H 1m) at SSE. Traces of cultivation ridges are visible running ENE-WSW across the interior, which has a general slope from NW-SE. Field fences running NE-SW intersect the monument at NE and SW. The site is now enclosed by a modern forestry plantation which is visible on Digital Globe aerial photograph taken November 2011. Monument placed on the Register of Historic Monuments in 1989.
