Straddling summit of narrow E-W orientated ridge in gently undulating rocky upland pasture. Raised oval area (27m E-W; 23m N-S) enclosed by a wall of random limestone rubble (T 1.25m; int. H 1.05m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. The wall encloses the site SW-NE and appears to have been rebuilt as a field wall. The gable (Wth 4m) of a now derelict modern farmhouse extends just beyond the inner line of the removed cashel wall NE-ENE. From E-SW the wall is absent except for the footings (Wth 2.4m) at the level of the interior. The external basal facing of the wall has been rebuilt E-SW. A ramp (Wth 6m), widened in modern times, from the platform at E marks the position of the original entrance. The central one-third of the interior is level while the N one-third slopes slightly facing N and the S one-third slopes slightly facing S.
