A subcircular cashel, roughly 31 metres north to south and 29 metres east to west, sits on a low hillock in rough pastureland, its defining drystone wall long since collapsed. From the south-east around to the south, even that collapsed material has vanished entirely from the surface. The interest lies not in what survives but in what the partial record tells us was once there.

A cashel is a stone-walled ringfort, a form of enclosed farmstead typical of early medieval Ireland, built to define territory and protect livestock rather than to serve any purely military function. Writing in 1912, a researcher named Holt recorded that the eastern side of this one had a gateway, 2.1 metres wide, approached by a stone causeway. By the time McCaffrey noted the site in 1952, that causeway had already left no visible trace at ground level. The gateway itself has since followed. The site now survives as little more than a footprint, a slight rise and the ghost of a wall, on pasture close to the bay.
