It measures approximately 36 metres in diameter, which puts it in the typical range for a ringfort, a form of enclosed farmstead used widely across early medieval Ireland. What makes this one a little harder to read than most is the condition of its boundary: for the greater part of its circuit, the original stone-faced earthen bank has collapsed and been replaced by a field boundary, both now buried under dense overgrowth. Only in the north-northwest to north section does something more legible survive, where a scarped edge roughly six metres wide and 0.8 metres high still stands, with a barely perceptible external fosse, a shallow ditch, running alongside it at around 2.6 metres wide.

The site was recorded and compiled by Denis Power, with the record uploaded in August 2011. Aerial photographs taken in March 2006 as part of the Archaeological Survey of Ireland provide a clearer overhead picture of the enclosure's outline than anything visible at ground level, where centuries of agricultural activity have done a thorough job of obscuring the original form. The collapsed and overgrown bank suggests the site has been absorbed into the working landscape over a long period, its function as a boundary and enclosure quietly repurposed rather than deliberately demolished.

The enclosure sits in level ground, which means the slight surviving earthworks are easier to spot than they might be on broken or sloping terrain, though the overgrowth means much of the circuit still requires some patience to trace. The north-northwest section, where the scarped edge survives, is the most informative part of the monument and the most useful point of orientation. Visitors should be aware that this is farmland, and the remains are subtle enough that without prior knowledge of what to look for, the site can read simply as an uneven hedgerow. The aerial photography held by the Archaeological Survey of Ireland offers useful preparation before any visit.
