A sub-triangular shaped enclosure is depicted on the first ed. OS 6-inch map. Depicted as a tree plantation and not as antiquity, on the 1818 Boyd Belvedere Map of Kilbrennan townland (WCL/M/BBE/6). On the OS Fair Plan the monument is depicted as a sub-triangular-shaped earthwork delimited by a scarp and annotated on the map as 'fort'. Situated on top of a prominent hillock with good views to NW and N of undulaing pasture. The monument has been levelled and is not visible at ground level. On the first ed. OS 6-inch map the monument is depicted as a sub-triangular shaped earthwork with straight side at S and W with bank at NE running diagonally from NW-SE.
