In pasture, on a gentle W-facing slope, towards the top of a low hill. A circular area (c. 54m E-W) defined by the remains of two earthen banks and an intervening fosse. The interior is defined by a steep-sided earth and stone bank (Wth 2.55m; int. H 1.4m; ext. H 1.3m) NW-E and by a scarp E-NW. The intervening fosse is shallow. The outer bank (Wth 2.4m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 0.65m) is visible intermittently NW-NE. The inner bank is stone faced internally and externally. Its terminals at NW and E are abutted by E-W field boundaries radiating externally from the bank. The NW terminal of the outer bank is abutted by the N face of the field boundary. Another rath (KE058-076----) is c. 40m to the ENE.
