In rough hill pasture, on a NW-facing slope, on the S bank of the Glashanaglarach stream. A circular area (29m N-S; 28m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.6m; int. H 1.15m; ext. H 1.2m) ENE-WNW and by a scarp WNW-ENE. An external fosse (Wth 2.1m; D 0.8m) is evident SE-WNW. Several gaps occur in the enclosing bank and a large stone is exposed on the external face of the bank at SW. The interior slopes down to the NW and there is a souterrain (KE102-011001-) in the E half. The stream is eroding the rath at NE. There is a relict field boundary (KE102-011002-) in the immediate vicinity to the W and S. Three hut sites (KE102-011003-, KE102-011004-, KE102-011005-) are c. 40m to the SE, c. 50m to the ESE and c. 50m to the E, respectively.
