An arc of earthen bank, roughly thirty metres long and still standing about 1.6 metres high, curves from south-south-east to north-north-west across a sloping tillage field. The rest has gone, absorbed into the field fence system over generations of agricultural reworking, with only a low rise to the east-south-east hinting at where the levelled bank once completed the circle.

A rath, to use the Irish term for this type of enclosure, is a ringfort defined by an earthen bank rather than stone, and the form was widespread across early medieval Ireland as a farmstead or high-status residence. This particular example was circular with a diameter of around thirty metres, and it appears on both the 1842 and 1904 Ordnance Survey six-inch maps as a hachured circular enclosure, meaning cartographers of both eras still recognised enough of its shape to record it. The 1842 map also marks a limekiln on the eastern bank of the enclosure. Limekilns, small stone furnaces used to burn limestone into quicklime for fertilising fields or mortaring walls, were commonplace on Irish farmland from the seventeenth century onward, and the proximity of one here suggests the site had long since shifted from any ceremonial or domestic function into the everyday rhythms of agricultural life. By the time the 1904 surveyors returned, the outline was still legible, though the erasure was clearly well advanced.
