Near the bottom of a S-facing slope, in rough pasture within a large multiperiod field system (CL009-030001-). This very poorly preserved subcircular cashel (31.7m N-S; 24.5m E-W) is defined by the denuded footing of a stone wall (H 0.5-0.7m; Wth 1.2-1.8m). There is an entrance (Wth 2.6m) at the SSW. This entrance was later narrowed to 0.8m, by filling in its E side with stones. A large lintel-like slab (L 1.3m; Wth 0.4m; T 0.2m) lies on the ground surface c. 2m to the W of the entrance. There is a modern entrance gap at the S. The cashel interior is slightly domed, rising 0.3-0.7m over the wall-footing on most sides, but higher (1.6m) at N-SE where the slope is steeper.
