In improved pasture, on a ridge, overlooking a small valley to the N, with good views is all directions. A D-shaped area (dims. c. 38m NW-SE; 35m NE-SW straight side) defined by a bank (Wth 6.8m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.35m) visible at the SSE, but not elsewhere due to the dense growth of briars. Along the straight side, to the NW and from NE-SE it is defined by scarp (Wth 2.35m; H 1.65m) and an external fosse (Wth 5.1m; D 0.2m). There is a breach (Wth c. 3m) at the WNW and others at the NE and SE. The interior appears level and is obscured by briars in the W half. All the field boundaries, depicted on the 1904 edition OS 6-inch map, extending to the N, SE and W from monument, have been removed. An enclosure (TS059-077----) lies c. 100m to the SW.

- TS059-077 Enclosure
Description
In improved pasture, on a low rise, on a W-facing slope. Remains of a D-shaped area (dims. 25m NW-SE; c. 24m NE-SW) defined by a straight scarp (Wth 1.1m; H 0.15m) at the NE and traces of a curvilinear scarp (Wth 1.5m; H 0.05m) from ENE-SSE. A townland boundary, which ran NW-SE along the edge of the NE quadrant, has been removed but is visible as a shallow, linear depression (Wth 3.2m; D 0.05m). A stream and townland boundary, running NE-SW, flank the NW side of the monument. The enclosure was possibly more circular originally, as indicated on the 1st (1840) ed. 6-inch OS map. The interior is level and incorporated into the rest of the field as pasture. An enclosure (TS059-076----) is visible c. 100m to the NE. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
