  Description

  In pasture, on a N-facing slope with views N to the Slieve Mish Mountains. A circular area (45m N-S; 44.5m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 5.8m; int. H 0.75m; ext. H 1.65m). An external fosse (Wth 2.5m; D 0.4m) is evident SE-NE. The bank and part of the fosse are obscured by overgrowth. A partially eroded entrance (Wth c. 3m) is at E and there are cattle breaks at S and NW. The interior slopes down to the N. The faint trace of a shallow depression (Wth 1.2m; D 0.15m) is evident, along the base of the bank internally, E-SW. There is a souterrain (KE047-070001-) in the W half of the interior.
