On a prominent rise in pasture, close to the NW end of Clawinch Island in Lough Ree. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. An irregularly shaped area (max. dim. 17.1m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 2.9m; H 0.2m) from ESE-S-W and elsewhere by modern field boundaries. There is no trace of a fosse and the original entrance is not recognisable.
