Not visible at ground level. Described in 1974 by the Offaly Historical and Archaeological Society as 'Rath is situated in Smollen's field and is easily visible from railway line. It is very large about 30 metres long but 10 wide and oblong. It is largely overgrown and shows few features. The long earthwork directly opposite it across the railway line is also overgrown and has no remarkable features.' (OHAS file 1974). Of doubtful antiquity.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
