In pasture, on a level terrace, on the lower N-facing slopes of Knockeirka. A circular area (diam. 16m) defined by the low grass-covered base course of a drystone wall (T 1m; H 0.2m). A later drystone wall (T 0.4m; H 1.2m) stands on its outer rim. Field boundaries abut the cashel at NW and SE. Field-clearance rubble is piled intermittently against the outer face of the wall.
