On a hillock in marshy pasture with good views across Liscannor Bay to the S. Hachured on both the first (1840) and Cassini (1916) editions of the OS 6-inch map. Classified as an enclosure in the RMP (1996). A circular rath (int. diams. 27.5m E-W; 26m N-S) is defined by an earthen bank and scarp with traces of an outer fosse. The steep, overgrown scarp (H 1-1.2m) is present around the entire monument and a low bank (int. H 0.2m; Wth 2m) survives at N and NE. The outer fosse (Wth 1m) is visible as a wet depression encircling the scarp and there is a possible original entrance gap (Wth 2m) with a corresponding causeway across the fosse at NE. The densely overgrown interior is level with no apparent features.
