What is recorded here
On a gentle SE-facing slope. Circular grass-covered area (int. diam. 28.5m E-W; 25.7m N-S) defined by a rebuilt stone wall (at N: Wth 1.6m; int. H 1.8m; ext. H 1m) SW-N which is replaced by a drystone wall on the line of occasionally visible facing stones elsewhere. There is a modern entrance (Wth 0.8m) at ESE. Archaeological testing (06E1098) c. 80m to the WSW failed to produce any related archaeological material (Ó Faoláin 2009).
