This univallate rath is situated immediately S of KE014-070----. It consists of a circular area enclosed by a high, well-defined earthen bank and external fosse. The enclosing bank is on average 6.5m in width at the base, and it rises to a maximum of 4.4m above the fosse and 2.8m above the interior. The external fosse is U shaped and well defined especially to the W through N to E. It is between 1.6m to 2.6m wide and between .6m to 1.5m deep. The interior is at a higher level than the surrounding land and access to the interior is gained by a 9.6m wide entrance on the E side. In the W sector of the interior there is a slight mound (KE014-071001-) 8m x 10m externally. A fieldbank touches this site on the E side, just S of the entrance.
