The National Monuments Service's description
In undulating grassland, some 150m to the S of a stream. Poorly preserved subcircular rath (42m WNW-ESE; 39m NNE-SSW) defined by a bank and external fosse. The bank is visible from ENE through S to NW; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. The fosse survives from S through W to NW. A field bank overlies the bank from NE to SSE.
