The original entrance to this early medieval ringfort in Cill Mhuire, on the Dingle Peninsula, is thought to survive somewhere along the eastern arc of the enclosing bank, but the vegetation is now so thick as to make that section entirely impenetrable. What can be seen is enough to give a clear sense of the structure: a circular univallate rath, meaning a single-banked enclosure of the kind built across Ireland roughly between the fifth and twelfth centuries as a farmstead and status marker, with an earthen and stone bank reaching 1.4 metres high on the outside and about a metre on the inner face, and roughly 2.3 metres wide at the base. The interior diameter is 21 metres.

The fort sits near the crest of a low, broadly level ridge, at around 212 feet above sea level, positioned between the lower reaches of the Owenmore and Scorid rivers. That kind of modest but deliberate elevation is typical of rath placement, offering visibility across surrounding ground without demanding a dramatic hilltop. A townland boundary wall now bisects the site from north to south, cutting straight through the enclosing bank, and the two gaps where the bank was broken to accommodate it were almost certainly made at the time the wall was built. J. Cuppage's 1986 archaeological survey of the Corca Dhuibhne area, which covers the Dingle Peninsula, recorded this site and noted that a source identified as Curran had previously documented an underground chamber here. A souterrain, as such features are generally known, is a stone-lined underground passage or chamber associated with ringforts, used for storage or possibly refuge, and their presence often signals that a site repays closer attention than its overgrown surface might suggest.
