Full Description

Circular enclosure truncated to the nw by later farmstead. Depicted in Balds 1805 at the townland boundaries of former Totabeg & Howbeg; that it was recorded at all may suggest a site of significance. The feature is clearly visible on current AP's, the eastern edge is not discernible; approx 22m diameter.
