What makes this particular example quietly interesting is how thoroughly the landscape has absorbed it. The enclosing wall has collapsed almost entirely, and along its eastern side no trace of it remains at the surface at all. A later field wall, built by farmers who presumably found the old stonework useful, cuts directly across the cashel's perimeter from west to north, further blurring the outline of what was once a defended circular enclosure roughly 26.8 metres in diameter.

Cashels of this kind were typically built during the early medieval period, roughly the fifth to twelfth centuries, and served as farmsteads or small settlement enclosures for free farmers and minor lords. This one was noted by McCaffrey in 1952, catalogued as number 53 in his survey. Despite the poor surface preservation, the site retains one feature of genuine archaeological interest: a souterrain in its north-western interior quadrant. Souterrains are underground stone-lined passages or chambers, common across early medieval Ireland, that may have been used for storage, refuge, or both. The fact that this one survives beneath the surface while the walls above ground have largely vanished or been reused speaks to how thoroughly ordinary agricultural life can redraw an ancient site across the centuries.
