What is recorded here
In pasture, on highest point of a rocky crag (long axis N-S) affording excellent views all around. Circular area (12.5m N-S; 12m E-W) defined by gentle scarped edge (Wth 5.2m; H 0.3m) with embedded kerb stones. Kerb best preserved around southern arc, with four stones at WNW-NW and two at NW. Other more widely spaced stones around northern arc. Upright stone (LI023-010----) is off-centre to ESE in interior. Shallow hollow, with remnants of mortar and loose stone, is off-centre to N in interior. This is probable location of the 'turret' (Barry 1896) a large fragment of which lies at NNW edge of monument . This was erected in 1829 'to commemmorate Catholic Emancipation' but fell in 1897 (ibid.).
