The National Monuments Service's description
Located towards the bottom of the a W-facing slope of the Tullyskeherny plateau and at the E edge of the Bonet River valley. No feature is marked on any map, but a subcircular feature (diam. c. 30m) is visible on aerial photographs (GSIAP: G 357-8). A fragment of an overgrown bank survives NE-SE, which may be the last remnant of a rath in rough pasture.
