In rough pasture, on a N-facing slope overlooking Ballydonegan Bay. An uneven and disturbed circular area (diam. 8m) enclosed by the remains of a fosse (Wth 1-1.2m; D 0.2-0.5m) with a damaged external bank (Wth 2.5-3.5m; ext. H 0.1-0.5m). There are breaks in the bank at E and W. A number of small mounds appear along the edge of the interior, giving the impression of the remains of an inner bank. However it is likely that they may have resulted from site disturbance. There are some field-clearance stones on the ring-barrow and it is partially covered by long grass and overgrowth. There is an embanked barrow (CO127-036----) c. 3km to the SE.
