In pasture, on a gentle SW-facing slope. An oval area (40m N-S; c. 33m E-W) defined by a low severely eroded earthen bank (Wth 2.1m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.2m) N-S and by a more substantial earthen bank, which is incorporated into the field boundary, S-N. There are gaps at NNE (Wth 3m) and S (Wth 2.5m). The interior slopes down to the SW. According to local information, a natural spring flows from N to S through the rath. Some trees line the edge of the interior. It is indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 50m), at the junction of four fields.
