What is recorded here
Situated on a low terrace on the NW facing slope of low hillock in gently undulating countryside with good views to SW and ESE. Taghboyne church (WM026-078001-), graveyard (WM026-078003-) and ecclesiastical enclosure (WM026-078001-) 220m to S. Ringfort (WM026-077----) 420m to SW. Large circular-shaped area (approx. diam. 33m N-S) enclosed by a low earth and stone bank that is intersected at E by a post-1700 field fence running roughly N-S. Gap (Wth 2m) in bank at SW appears to be modern gap but may represent the original entrance feature. The interior gently slopes from SE-NW with cultivation ridges running NE-SW across the monument. Cultivation ridges running roughly N-S are clearly visible in field to S.
