The National Monuments Service's description
In level grassland. Poorly preserved subcircular rath (43m E-W; 41m N-S) defined by a bank and external fosse; the latter survives from W to NW. A road cuts through the monument from SE to W and the enclosing elements are best preserved to N of it. To S, the bank has been levelled and the line of the fosse is indicated by a dark band of vegetation. This record is cross-referenced to GA108-106----.
