Internal diameter 27m N-S, 30m E-W This site has an excellent view of the surrounding countryside. It appears to have been a bivallate rath, but about 10 years ago it was levelled considerably. Today all that remains is a raised D-shaped area enclosed by a fosse. The inner area rises to a height of between .6m-2.4m above the fosse. The fosse measures 3m in width and 1m below the height of the surrounding land. According to a local man, Mr Barry, this fort used to have very high steep banks and a very steep fosse.
