On low-lying ground. A low, oval-shaped mound of earth and stone (106.8m NE-SW; 87.4m NW-SE) is defined by an irregular scarp with some traces of a bank of earth and stone. It is divided into unequal portions by a NW-SE field boundary, which marks the division between the two townlands. The larger portion, to the NE, is also divided into roughly equal portions by a NE-SW field boundary. The site is known locally as a 'fort' and a report in 1978 (SMR file) noted that, according to the landowner, it was an 'old grave yard'. This belief, coupled with its size, suggests that it is possibly an early ecclesiastical enclosure. A holy well (LF011-053----) lies c. 220m to the SE.
