The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a slight rise, on a slight SE-facing slope, in gently undulating pasture. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 20m) enclosed by a bank of rubble limestone (Wth 2.3m; int. H 0.6m). No fosse visible. The bank is best preserved S-NNW. From S-ENE the external foot of the bank is revetted with stone blocks and from SW-WNW the internal foot of the bank is revetted. The site is crossed by a NW-SE orientated drystone field wall that intersects with the cashel bank at NW and at S. Original entrance not recognisable.
