Situated on a moderate to steep NNE-facing slope, in gently undulating pasture. A steep E-W orientated N-facing slope breaks immediately to the N of the rath. Circular area (diam. 24m) enclosed by a substantial bank of earth and stone (Wth 6m; int. H 1.4-2.2m). At the external foot of the bank is a fosse (Wth 5m; D 0.8-1.75m). From NW-NE the bank is absent and the rath is defined by a near vertical rock cut scarp (ext. H 4m) formed by cutting back a steep natural E-W facing that abuts the N side of the site. The fosse is absent NW-NE at the base of the rock cut scarp. A relic NE-SW orientated drystone field wall extends along the external upper break of slope of the bank S-ENE. The original entrance is not recognisable. Due to the underlying natural slope the S half of the interior is lower than external ground level.
