This one barely does. Sitting on level ground in the Burren's rough pasture near Carran, surrounded by the fractured grey pavements of karst limestone that define this part of County Clare, the structure has subsided over centuries into something closer to a low earthen suggestion than an enclosure. A cashel, to use the correct term, is a ringfort defined by a stone wall rather than an earthen bank, and this example now survives mainly as a stony bank between five and seven metres wide, its interior height barely reaching half a metre in places, its exterior face somewhat more visible at the south and west. The interior measures roughly fourteen by fourteen metres across, the overall footprint not much larger than a generous suburban garden.

What makes the site quietly interesting is its longevity in the cartographic record. It was already considered worth marking on the Ordnance Survey six-inch map in 1842, and it reappears on the 1920 edition as well, the characteristic hachuring used by surveyors to indicate an earthwork still legible on both. That continuity does not tell us when the cashel was built or by whom, but it confirms the structure was recognisable as something deliberate even as it deteriorated. A second cashel lies approximately 185 metres to the east, which raises the possibility, common in the Burren, of closely associated enclosures once forming part of the same agricultural or settlement landscape during the early medieval period, when such stone-walled enclosures were typically in use across Ireland.
