The rath is defined by a grass-covered earthen bank (at SW: Wth of base 6.4m; Wth of top 2m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 0.9m) with some bushes separated by a berm (at N: Wth 4.5m; at SW: Wth 1.3m) from an outer earthen bank (at SW: Wth of base 2.5m; int. H 0.25m; ext. H 1.1m) that is missing W-NNW where the slope is very steep. There is an entrance through the inner (Wth of base 2.5m) and outer (Wth of base 2.2m) banks at ESE along the spur
