In pasture, located on a slight E-facing slope, c. 300m SW of the Leaffony River. Very slightly raised, oval area (48m N–S; c. 59.5m E–W) defined by remnants of a partly levelled earthen bank (Wth 1.8m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.4m, at N), truncated at S–SW by an E–W field fence. Another field fence on a NE–SW axis cuts the E–SE edge of the enclosure. Large stones protrude from the bank, some of which, at NW in particular, may be the remnants of stone facing. The interior has a slight slope down from W to E, and the E half appears to be built up somewhat to compensate for this natural slope. In the SE quadrant there is an oblong hollow or pit (max. dim. 8-10m) encircled by a raised rim or bank (W c. 3m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 0.3m) of earth and stones. This appears to be the result of quarrying. There is a souterrain (SL011-135----) 40m to N, and another rath (SL011-085----) located c. 270m to ENE.
