An irregular oval enclosure which appears to enclose parts of the summit of Windmill Hill. The monument was first reported (Ní Lionáin and Davis, 2014) in 2014 on the basis of lidar survey and analysis and subsequent geophysical analysis (Target, 2018) further clarified its features. The monument is most clearly seen at the W as a poorly defined series of positive and negative linear responses, curving at the W and extending in overall length 215m to the ENE. Additional curved lengths are visible at the ENE edge of the ridge with N and S sides more linear and less obvious. The monument measures 114m N-S in form is probably a hill fort enclosing a total area of 2.5 HA. DU021-038 a windmill, DU021-109---- a cairn, DU021-111---- a ceremonial enclosure with associated enclosure DU021-110---- lie within the confines of the hillfort. To the SE of the hillfort is a ring-ditch DU021-113----.
