In pasture, utilising a rise, with a steep fall of ground falls to NNE into a hollow of wet ground.
This rath is shown as an embanked enclosure on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is not shown on the 1931 edition. Oval platform (25.5m NW−SE; 21.7m NE−SW) defined by a scarp (H 1.8m at SW, 4.6m at NE; Wth slope 2.6m at SW, 2.5m at NE) which conforms to the contours of the ridge at N−SE. The interior has a slight rise in the centre, with a slope down from there to S. There is no clearly defined entrance –it may have been on the SE side, which faces the spine of the ridge, but is truncated by a straight field fence on a NE−SW axis. There is a low section of the scarp at W (H 1m) but no clearly defined gap.
There is another rath (MA071-189----) 135m to W.
