On a slight rise in low-lying scrubby pasture c.70m NW of the Dealagh River, partially truncated by a road to the SW leading to the adjacent New Bridge. Hachured on the 1840 and 1916 OS 6-inch maps. A bivallate rath (int. diam. 23m E-W; 20m NNW-SSE) defined by an inner earthen bank (ext. H c. 0.95-1.85m) surmounted by a stone wall, a round-bottomed fosse (Wth 9m; ext. H 0.65-1m), and an outer bank (Wth 3-9m; ext. H 1-2m). The inner bank in overlain by a collapsed stone wall 2-3 courses high visible intermittently from the E to the SW (Wth 1.5-1.6m; H 0.15-0.2m). The SW part of the enclosing elements have been truncated by the adjacent road and the banks and fosse have been reduced to two scarps and a berm from N to ENE. No clear entrance is visible. The interior slopes gently down to the SE and is densely overgrown.
