Situated in a low lying marshy area. A circular area (C c. 40m N-SE) defined by a bank from NW-NNW, and a scarp (H c. 0.4m) from NNW-E. An intervening fosse (Wth c. 3.5m) and outer bank (Wth c. 4.1m, int. H c. 0.35m, ext. H c. 0.25m) are visible from N-E. Possible entrance at E. Spoil, probably resulting from the construction of a nearby silage tank, has been piled in the SW quadrant of the interior.
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.
