The National Monuments Service's description
On a ridge in level grassland. Poorly preserved subcircular cashel (53m NNE-SSW) defined by a
collapsed drystone wall which is obscured by dense overgrowth. A field boundary cuts across the SW quadrant of the interior. Gaps at NE and ENE appear to be modern.
