The National Monuments Service's description
Some 65m to the E of a another rath (GA106-120----). This circular rath (diam. c. 50m), in fair condition, is defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. Gaps occur in the banks at N and S (each Wth 2m). A field boundary overlies the outer bank from SW through N to SE. A souterrain (GA106-121001-) lies in the W sector of the interior.
