On a NW-SE drumlin ridge. A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded a raised subcircular area (c. 47m N-S; c. 41m E-W) enclosed by a wide low bank of earth and stone with a wide, shallow, external fosse. The original entrance was not recognisable. Apart from a short stretch of a scarp (H 1.8m) at SW, the rath has been levelled. O'Donovan
