Visible as a circular feature on aerial photographs (GSIAP: M 596-7), and situated on a rise in an undulating landscape. Circular grass-covered area (int. diam. 36.6m N-S) defined by the footing of a stone wall with facing-stones (Wth of wall 2m) surviving beneath a drystone-built wall NNW-SE and evident as a slight scarp S-NNW. The perimeter is truncated by a NE-SW field wall at SE. The field wall on the perimeter at NE has been replaced by a NW-SE wall across the interior since 2000 (OSAP: 2000, 2005). Cashel (RO047-043----) is c. 190m to the SSE. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
