The National Monuments Service's description
On a low hillock in rolling countryside. A raised circular area (diam. 30.4m) enclosed by a partially denuded, wide, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 6.8m; H 0.3-0.8m). There is no trace of a fosse. The rath is divided into unequal portions by an ENE-WSW field boundary. The smaller portion, to the NNW, has been levelled and is not visible at ground level. The original entrance is not recognisable.
