What is recorded here

On a gradual W-facing slope, on the lower slope of a ridge running N-S, in pasture. There are very good to extensive views in all directions, except to the E which is impeded by the rise in slope. Identified on an aerial photograph (GB89.T.22) which shows the cropmark of a curvilinear enclosure defined by a fosse with an in-turned entrance facing SW and with two conjoined curvilinear annexes. There is no visible trace of the enclosure at ground level. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly and Dr. Gillian Barrett for the Archaeological Survey of Ireland Date of revised upload: 24 April 2018

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.
