What is recorded here

On an E-facing slope in undulating pastureland. Poorly preserved and grassed-over circular cashel (diam. 24m) defined by a collapsed drystone wall. A field wall overlies the enclosing element from NE to E. A gap (Wth 2.5m) at NW may be original. The monument is heavily overgrown with brambles and bushes.
