In pasture, located on a slight rise in gently rolling terrain broken by limestone outcropping.
Subcircular area (36m N−S; c. 36m E−W) defined a broad, low grass-covered stony bank (Wth 3-4m; H 0.3-0.4m at N, ext. H 0.8m at S). The bank has a pronounced external slope on the S arc where there is a natural dip in exterior ground level, but it has been levelled to little more than a low undulation on the W arc, and it is truncated at E by old, grassed-over quarry pits (diam. c. 8m; D 0.5m) and SE (diam. c. 8m; D c. 0.8m).
The S half of the interior encompasses a low domed rise from where the ground slopes downwards towards the perimeter. A limestone boulder protrudes from the NE edge. This part of the interior is obscured nettles, long grass and hawthorn trees. There is a rath (MA118-171----) 170m to SE, and a cluster of three raths (MA118-042---- to MA118-044----) is located within 200m to W and NW. A field system (MA118-165----) surrounds the raths.
