Measuring roughly 28 metres from north-east to south-west and 24 metres from north-west to south-east, it is modest in scale but quietly insistent in form, the kind of feature that rewards a second look at a map.

The enclosure is defined on its north-west and south-west sides by what appear to be two earthen banks, while a more recent field wall now forms its western boundary, a commonplace palimpsest in the Irish landscape where farmers have long pressed older boundaries into new service. A contemporary field wall, meaning one that belonged to the same original phase of construction as the enclosure itself, extends away from its south-east side, suggesting this was never an isolated structure but part of a larger organised landscape. That wider landscape is itself classified as a multiperiod field system, a term that reflects the layering of agricultural activity across different eras, each generation working with or around what came before. The Caher River valley, in the Burren, is particularly rich in such survivals, where thin soils and low later disturbance have left earlier boundaries unusually intact at the surface.
