Ringforts, sometimes called raths, are the most common archaeological monument type in Ireland, typically the enclosed farmsteads of prosperous families from roughly the fifth to the twelfth centuries. They are ordinary in the sense of being numerous, yet this particular site has a quality of compression, two enclosures in close proximity, that raises questions about how the land here was organised and by whom.

The site recorded by Denis Power measures roughly 18.5 metres north to south and 19.5 metres east to west, making it a modest but reasonably complete example of the type. It is defined by an earthen bank with an external fosse, the fosse being the accompanying ditch, running from the north-east around to the south-east. The bank itself survives to an internal height of around half a metre and an external height of just over a metre, and is at its most intact between the west-northwest and south-east arcs. The southern portion has suffered considerably from erosion. A gap of just over two metres in the bank at the north-east likely marks the original entrance. A stream runs close to the south-western arc of the enclosure, sitting roughly three metres outside the bank, while a dry-stone field boundary follows the outer edge of the fosse at the north. The second ringfort referenced in the notes, recorded separately under the identifier LI028-057, lies fifty metres to the south-south-east.

The interior is flat but has been heavily disturbed by cattle, and is strewn with stones and timber. Visitors approaching across rough grazing should expect soft ground and few clear sightlines; the earthworks are low and require a slow walk around the perimeter to appreciate the line of the bank and the fosse. The relationship between the two ringforts nearby is not explained in the available record, and that ambiguity is itself part of what makes the site worth a careful look.
