Shown on the 1909 OS 6-inch map as a circular area surrounded by a bank (max diam. c. 65m). No visible surface trace. According to Fitzgerald, James McRoberts of Castleroe was buried in the centre of monument in 1768 (FitzGerald 1899-1902, 249, 51). Described in 1955 as a slightly raised area enclosed by an earthen bank (Danaher 1955, no. 280), and the presence of McRoberts' tombstone is also noted. An aerial photograph (G. Barrett GB90.BT.35) shows the cropmark of a large oval enclosure (KD037-049001-) defined by a fosse surrounding the plough-levelled ringfort with traces of internal subdivisions within this outer enclosure.
