The stones, each roughly sixty centimetres thick and forty centimetres high, are spaced at intervals around the circumference, with smaller grass-covered stones filling the gaps between them. It is a modest structure by any measure, but its deliberate geometry marks it out from the ordinary scatter of field stones that dot this part of the county.

The enclosure belongs to a wider field system in the area, suggesting it was once part of a worked and managed landscape rather than an isolated feature. Its best-preserved arc runs from the south around to the north-east, where the stonework retains enough coherence to make the original shape legible. Most intriguingly, a hut site sits within the enclosure itself, pointing to actual habitation or use of the interior space. Enclosures of this kind, small and roughly circular, are found across early medieval and prehistoric Ireland, often associated with agricultural activity, animal penning, or domestic settlement. The combination of an enclosure and an interior hut site in the same small footprint suggests this was a working unit of some kind, a place where someone lived or at least sheltered, bounded by a boundary that mattered to them.
