A circular area (diam. c. 38.5m) defined by an earthen bank (Wth c. 3.1m, int. H c. 0.5m, ext. H c. 1.2m) and external fosse (Wth c. 2.7m) from SW-NW. Possible original entrance at E. Carrigan (1905, vol. 2, 141) refers to a chamber here and suggests that the ringfort may be the site of a castle (LA021-030002-).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Laois' (Dublin Stationery Office, 1995) compiled by P. David Sweetman, Olive Alcock and Bernie Moran. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
