  On a N-facing slope in hilly terrain in rough pasture. A circular area (dims. 39m N-S; 37.5m E-W) enclosed by an earthen and stone bank (Wth 0.8-1.8m crest, 3.8m base; int. H 0.86-1m; ext. H 0.92-1.2m), with hazelnut trees growing on the bank. There is evidence of a stone revettment at the base of the external face of the bank in the E quadrant and a possible internal revettment in the N quadrant. There is collapsed stone at the base of the outer face of the bank in the W quadrant. The bank is breached in the SE quadrant (Wth 2m) enabling tractor access to the interior. In the NE quadrant there is a gap in the bank (Wth c. 2m) which is heavily overgrown with brambles. The interior slopes to the N and is somewhat cattle poached, there is scrub in the N quadrant and a ring-feeder in the NE quadrant. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
