Internal diam. 32m N-S, 41m E-W. An oval platform enclosed by a fosse 1.5m wide and 15cms deep and an outer earthen bank up to 1m in height. It is not clear if there was ever an inner bank. Along the N sector, the outer bank is only a few cms high. To the ENE there are slight indications of an outer fosse. One gap to the NW is 4m wide and a second to the E is 3.6m wide. It is not clear if either was an original entrance. The interior is level but marshy. It is situated in slightly wet pasture commanding a view of Donegal Bay to the S.
