The National Monuments Service's description
At a rath (SL017-014001-). Six metres from the outer foot of the enclosing bank of the rath at NNE is a blocked-up access hole to the souterrain. Within the NE quadrant of the rath, a small circular stone-lined hollow (diam. 1.5m), located at the edge of a disturbed area, may be evidence of a collapsed section of the souterrain. Extending SE from this is a line of stones which mark the edge of a slight rise.
