Situated on the NE side of a gentle rise, in pasture with good views to N, E and W. Monument described in 1971 and 1976 as a much disturbed roughly circular-shaped area (diam. 33m) enclosed by an earth and stone bank which is steep and almost reduced to a scarp. It is best preserved from ESE-S-W and it has been modified to form modern field fences from W-N. A large portion of the perimeter has been quarried from N-E and this extends into the NE quadrant. There is no visible trace of an external fosse and the original entrance is not recognisable. The surviving portion of the interior has a gentle WNW-facing slope. See attached profile of monument surveyed and drawn by ASI. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien.

Situated on a slight rise, in gently undulating pasture, with good views from SW-W-N and NE. Depicted on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map as a circular-shaped earthwork. Levelled monument described in 1971 as no surface remains visible. A field boundary curving from SSW-W-N follows the outline of the monument and may incorporate the original enclosing bank of the ringfort. We would classify this as ‘Ringfort’ based on the field report and mapping. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien.
