In an area of improved pastureland and outcropping limestone. A small subcircular enclosure (8.3m E-W; 7.5m N-S) is defined by bank (Wth 1.5m; H 0.3m). A gap at NW may mark the original entrance. This may be a house site associated with the ecclesiastical enclosure (GA104-015004-) c. 12m to its W (pers. comm. Prof. E. Rynne December 1983). The area is densely overgrown with thorn bushes.
