The fort is easy to miss precisely because the land itself seems unremarkable, just a gently domed, grass-covered rise. But the slight bank and scarp that define its roughly oval outline, measuring around 37 metres north to south and 32 metres east to west, mark it as a deliberate human construction, the kind of enclosed ringfort that served as a farmstead or place of local authority during the early medieval period in Ireland.

The earthwork survives unevenly. On the south-western arc, the bank retains a measurable profile, with a base width of around four metres and an external height of just over two metres. Elsewhere, particularly to the north, it has eroded to little more than a scarp. A hedge now follows part of the line where the bank once ran more clearly. No original entrance has been identified. When the site was recorded in 1968, the interior was heavily overgrown with scrub, though by 1995 that vegetation had been cleared, giving surveyors a cleaner view of what remained. The choice of a drumlin top is itself significant; such elevated positions were commonly favoured for ringforts, offering a commanding view of the surrounding terrain without requiring the construction of artificial height.
