In pasture, located on elevated ground overlooking Rathfran Bay. Ground falls away gradually for 200m to E to the stony shoreline, and rise gradually to W.
Roughly circular area (c. 21m N-S; c. 20m E-W) defined by a dilapidated scarp (H 0.3-0.5m). The scarp can be traced clearly from S-NE, but elsewhere is poorly defined and, in parts, obscured by incorporation into later field walls, now levelled. On the SW arc the scarp has a slight, stony internal rim, marked by shorter grass growth, which may indicate the remains of an original enclosing wall or bank. The interior slopes down slightly from the centre to E. The surface is uneven, with numerous hollows and a few field clearance heaps. Remnants of a field wall bisect the interior centrally on an E-W axis.
