It is the kind of site that rewards careful attention rather than a casual glance, because what survives above ground is modest: a raised circular area roughly 38 metres across, enclosed by a bank of earth and stone just 4.3 metres wide and barely 0.3 metres high. That bank has been folded into the working landscape over time, modified and absorbed into field boundaries along its eastern and south-eastern sides until the distinction between ancient monument and agricultural boundary has become genuinely difficult to read.

The site appears on the 1837 edition of the Ordnance Survey six-inch map, where it is marked simply as "Fort", its outline traced as a curving field boundary running roughly from south-east around to west-north-west. By the 1913 edition, the same feature is rendered as more circular in plan, suggesting either that surveyors had a clearer view of its shape by then or that the surrounding landscape had shifted enough to make the geometry more legible. A ringfort, to give the monument its general category, is a type of enclosed farmstead common across early medieval Ireland, typically consisting of a circular area defined by one or more earthen banks and external ditches. The ditch here, known as a fosse, was recorded in 1976 but has since been infilled, removing one of the clearer diagnostic features from the visible record. A disused laneway cuts through the monument from west-north-west around to north-north-east, and to the north-west of it there is no visible trace of the structure at all. The original entrance has not been identified.

What remains is fragmentary but legible if you know what to look for. The raised interior platform, the surviving arc of the bank, and the way the field system has grown around and through the earthwork all tell a story of a monument that has been continuously useful to farmers long after its original purpose was forgotten, cannibalised rather than cleared, which is partly why any trace survives at all.
