The feature is subrectangular, measuring roughly 16 metres east to west and 11 metres north to south, and it sits just south-west of the centre of a much larger enclosure that surrounds it. What makes the arrangement quietly compelling is not any single structure but the clustering: two further enclosures lie within the same large outer boundary, one about 25 metres to the north-west and another around 40 metres to the east. Three distinct enclosed spaces, nested within a fourth, their boundaries now reduced to low, grassy undulations.

The enclosure was reported to the National Monuments Service by Conn Herriott, and its presence was confirmed through Digital Globe orthophotography captured between 2011 and 2013. That it took satellite imagery to bring it to formal attention says something about how subtly these features can survive in the landscape. Enclosures of this kind are a common enough monument type in Ireland, typically formed by earthen banks or stone walls and associated with early medieval settlement, farming, or activity of a more ceremonial nature, though the precise function of any individual example is rarely straightforward to determine. Here, the relationship between the smaller enclosures and the large one enclosing them all adds a layer of complexity that the surface evidence alone cannot resolve.
