What was almost certainly once a ringfort, the circular enclosed farmstead that formed the basic unit of rural settlement in early medieval Ireland, has been so thoroughly absorbed into a later landscape that its original form is now only partially legible. The avenue leading to a nearby house was cut directly through it, entering from the north-east and south-east, and at some point the monument appears to have been tidied and repurposed as a deliberate landscape feature associated with the house rather than simply left to decay.

The 1840 Ordnance Survey six-inch map recorded it as a circular area with a diameter of around 27 metres, already bisected by the avenue at that point. When the Archaeological Survey of Ireland examined it in 2000, the picture had grown more complicated. The surveyors described not a circle but a raised rectangular area measuring roughly 25 metres north-east to south-west and 16 metres north-west to south-east, defined by a scarp between 2.2 metres wide and 1.1 metres high running from the south-west through north to east. A roadway, some 3 metres wide and bounded by low parallel stone walls standing between 0.2 and 0.4 metres high, runs along the top of a scarp from south-east to south-west. The combination of an apparently circular origin, a later rectilinear form, and a built roadway on top of the bank suggests several phases of human use layered one on top of another, though the record stops short of certainty on any of them.

The site sits in level pasture with moderate views across the surrounding countryside, and the interior, undulating beneath the vegetation, is heavily overgrown on the eastern side. A Google Earth image taken in June 2018 shows the outline still just visible from above, the kind of faint impression that only makes sense once you know what you are looking at. Access would depend on landowner permission, as is standard for monuments in private farmland. The record was compiled by Martin Fitzpatrick and uploaded in July 2020 as part of an ongoing effort to document sites whose interest lies not in grandeur but in the questions they leave unanswered.
