This second one is the rougher of the pair, a subcircular rath measuring roughly 41.5 metres east to west and 40 metres north to south, its outline softened by time and whatever disturbances the land has seen since it was first raised.

A rath is an earthen ringfort, the kind of enclosed farmstead that was built across Ireland in the early medieval period, typically between around the fifth and twelfth centuries. They were domestic as much as defensive, a family compound defined by a bank and ditch. Here, the enclosure was given two banks with a fosse, a ditch, running between them, a more substantial arrangement than the single-bank norm, though much of it has worn away or been damaged. What survives is partial: the fosse can be traced from the north-west, running through the north and around to the south-east, while the outer bank remains visible from north to north-east and again at the south-east. A gap about 2.5 metres wide at the north-north-west may mark the original entrance, the point where cattle were driven in and people came and went on whatever daily business this place once contained.
