In pasture on the crest of an E-W ridge with clear views in all directions. Hachured on the 1840 and 1916 eds. OS 6-inch maps. A subcircular rath (int. dims. 22.5m N-S; 25.75m E-W) defined by a steep-sided earthen bank (top Wth 1.15m; base Wth 3m; int. H 0.25-0.65m; ext. H 0.4-1.25m) with an outer stone revetment and faint traces of an external fosse at the SE. A gap at the E (Wth 1.25m) with a large flagstone flanking its S jamb may represent an original entrance. Stone revetment is evident along the external bank at SE. The interior is flat. A discreet area of overgrown rubble in the N quadrant (L 7m; Wth 2-3.2m) may be the remains of an internal structure. The bank is overlain by a modern stone wall from the S to the N, and large quantities of field rubble are piled along the N perimeter of the monument.
