A ringfort, or rath, is a roughly circular earthwork enclosure, typically dating from the early medieval period and associated with farming settlements, though their precise uses varied considerably. This one originally measured around 25 metres in diameter, but the landscape has been reorganised around it over the centuries, and field boundaries have cut across its western to south-eastern arc, leaving a right-angled corner pressed into its north-eastern edge. The northern boundary has been removed entirely, though a slight break in the slope of the ground still traces its former course for anyone paying close attention.

What does survive, running from the south-east around to the west, is a double ring of concentric earthen banks, each measuring roughly 0.2 metres in height both internally and externally, with a crest-to-crest separation of 7 metres between the two. The presence of two banks rather than one is notable; the majority of Irish ringforts have a single enclosing element, and those with multiple banks are sometimes referred to as bivallate, a feature occasionally associated with higher-status settlements, though that interpretation remains subject to debate among archaeologists. The site sits in gently undulating pasture, and the interior of the enclosure dips softly down toward its centre, covered in tall grass. The banks themselves are described as clear of overgrowth, which makes the earthworks easier to read in the field than many comparable sites.

The site is recorded in agricultural land, so access depends on the goodwill of the landowner and an awareness of standard countryside courtesies. The low banks are subtle enough that they reward a slow, deliberate walk around the surviving arc rather than a glance from a field gate. The slight central depression is worth noting underfoot as you cross the interior, a gentle reminder that even a heavily altered site preserves its own topography. The record was compiled by Denis Power and uploaded in August 2011 as part of a broader effort to document surviving earthwork monuments across the county.
