Description
A roughly sub-oval enclosure, c.56m N-S by 54m, set on a S facing hillside, c.240m SE of the Breiddin Hillfort (Nprn141162) defined by one or two lines of widely spaced collapsed stone ramparts, 106m N-S by 78m overall.

The enclosure has been associated with the field system (Nprn306995) between it and the Breiddin Hillfort.
Excavation in 1933-5 produced RB material, from the late 1st-4th century.
