On high commanding ground c. 30m E of a cliff edge with good views except from E-SW where there is higher ground and within an extensive multiperiod field system (CL005-160001-). Hachured on the 1840 and 1916 OS 6-inch maps. Listed as ‘Enclosure’ in the RMP (1996).
An oval cashel (ext. dims. 41m NNE-SSW; 30m ESE-WNW; int. dims. 35m NNE-SSW; 25m ESE-WNW)
defined by a drystone wall (Wth 2-4m; int. H 0.3-0.8m; ext. H 0.25-1.8m) with visible outer facing. The external wall-face is poorly built at ESE. Upright stones at S extent are modern additions and a later cattle pen is constructed against the SSW extent. Field walls radiate from the cashel wall at NW, NNE, NE and SSW.
