In undulating pasture, located on an elevation with falling ground to S–NW giving excellent views over the flood plain of the River Moy. Ground falls gradually towards the river, which is located 250m to W. Nephin Mountain looms on the far horizon to SW.
This rath is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map, but is not shown on later map editions. Slightly raised, circular area (34m E-W; 34m N-S) defined by a partly levelled, but still distinct, earthen scarp (H 0.45m-0.6m). The scarp has a broad, low slope, merging relatively seamlessly with external ground level. A field fence, which respects the curve of the enclosure, truncates the external slope of the scarp on the N arc. At E, the scarp is levelled to a very low ramp allowing easy tractor access to the interior; the original entrance may have been on this side. The interior has a slight slope down from W to E.
