What is recorded here

No visible entrance exists on the eastern side, though the western gap remains clear. This asymmetry suggests the eastern boundary never matched the western one, possibly forming a separate chamber or disappearing entirely beneath soil. The missing structure may have served a distinct purpose before vanishing, leaving behind an incomplete circle rather than a uniform ring.

Situated on an elevated plateau of undulating pasture, on ground sloping slightly down to E, within a large field system (CL009-001001-). Hachured as a subcircular enclosure on the OS 25-inch map (1897) and on the 1916 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Listed as ‘Enclosure’ in the RMP (1996). A subcircular cashel (int. dims. 29.2m N–S; c. 28m E–W) defined by a stone wall (Wth 2.5–3.7m; H 0.4–1m). The cashel entrance (ext. Wth 0.8m; int. Wth 0.7m) is at the WNW and is lined by large stones (max. H 0.8m). There is a small cairn (4.8m E–W; 3.4m N–S; H 0.2–0.4m) at the centre of the cashel. Several overgrown raised features (L c. 4–8m; Wth 1–3.1m; H 0.3-0.7m) arranged in curved lines form a suboval shape (int. diam. c. 15m E–W; c. 10m N–S) around the cairn; these may be spoil heaps or wall remnants. The remains of a rectilinear house of indeterminate date (CL009-001036-) lie inside the cashel wall at N. A later drystone wall was built on top of the cashel wall, generally over its outer facing. This drystone wall survives upright from W to SE. Other cashels lie c. 140m to the SSE (CL009-001031-) and c. 255m to the SSW (CL008-045016-).
