The National Monuments Service's description

On a slight S-facing slope. This is a D-shaped enclosure or annexe attached to the SE of rath (RO047-011001-) and is visible as a low grass-covered platform (dims 25m E-W; at least 19m N-S) defined by a slight scarp (H 0.2m) NE-SW. The rath and annexe are bisected by a WNW-ESE field wall, but the annexe is not visible N of this feature.
