In a low-lying position in gently undulating grassland, c. 50m W of a stream. Subcircular rath (N-S 27.5m, E-W 26m), in fair condition, defined by a bank best preserved from SE through S to SW. A band of vegetation evident from S through W to NE may indicate an external fosse. A gap (Wth 2m) at SW could be original. Quarrying has disturbed the bank from ENE through E to SE. An enclosure (GA087-102----) lies c. 270m to W.
