The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

The platform is quite steep-sided in places and its surface is strewn with large stones. There is no obvious evidence of any structure within the enclosed area. Souterrain LH006-052002- is situated just to the E of the site. (CLAJ 1942, 106; CLAJ 1961, 5)
