Situated at the N edge of a col between Cnoiceen Hill to the SW and the Monavullagh Mountains to the E. This is a circular dished grass-covered area (diam. 24.5m) with some heather and ferns defined by an earth and stone bank (Wth 2.2-4.3m; int. H 0.3-05m; max. ext. ext. H 0.3-0.5m but 1.3m at N) S-N-SE, which is reduced to a scarp down to the interior SE-S. A gap at SW (Wth 0.7m) may be original but a gap at NE (Wth 4.5m) is not.
