What is recorded here
On level ground at the SE perimeter of a large, disused horse exercising track, the enclosing bank and ditch of which overlie the site's limits NW-N-NNE. Visible on an aerial photograph (DoD, 1999). A small, level circular area (diam. 3m) is defined by a very shallow fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.1m) NNE-S-NW. The interior is partially disturbed by vehicle tracks. This is one of a group of six similar, closely associated monuments (KD022-072---- to KD022-077----) in this part of the Little Curragh.
