On the E side of a shallow, marshy valley through which a small stream flows N c. 70m to the W of the monument and forms the baronial boundary between the Barony of Connell to the E and the Barony of Offaly East to the W. A tall, steep-sided, uneven-topped, circular earthen mound is enclosed by a fosse at the base (H above fosse at N 9m; diam. of summit 10m). An earthen causeway at SSE links to an approximately triangular bailey (L. 80m; W at causeway 40m; H. at E 5m, H. above valley at S and W 8.5m) which appears to have been quarried in places. There is a low earthen bank on the bailey at E.
