The bank survives to a width of about three metres but lifts only some seventy centimetres on the interior side and a little less on the exterior, meaning a walker could step over it without difficulty. That modest profile is itself a kind of record, a measure of how much has been lost rather than how much endures.

The site belongs to the class of monument known as a rath, the Irish term for a ringfort, which was the most common form of rural settlement in early medieval Ireland, typically enclosing a farmstead and its associated structures within one or more earthen banks. This example, roughly twenty-five metres in diameter, has suffered considerably from the pressures that have worn away so many similar sites. A field wall bisects it at both the north-west and south-east, and to the east the enclosing bank has vanished entirely, removed during land-improvement works at some point in the past. Associated with the site is a possible souterrain, an underground stone-lined passage or chamber that was commonly built within ringforts, most likely for storage or as a place of refuge. The souterrain here has its own separate record but its precise condition is not documented in detail alongside the rath itself.
