The ringfort is located on the summit of Rathmichael Hill in the centre of a hillfort (DO026-048001-). The site comprises a circular, flat area (ext. diam. 34m) defined by a low wide earth and stone bank (Wth 3m; H 0.8m) faced with large boulders. The interior slopes from W to E with mature pine trees growing within it. An entrance (Wth 4m) in the ESE has a double-banked trackway leading from it to the lower bank of the hillfort (Healy 1975, 1-19; Turner 1983, 95).
