Located in the centre of the interior of Colgagh rath (SL015-041001-). Slightly raised square area (dims. 3.8m WNW-ESE; 3.9m ENE-WSW) enclosed by a low narrow bank of earth and stone (Wth 0.6m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.5m). At the external foot of the bank are a fosse (Wth 0.55m) and an external bank of earth and stone (Wth 0.75m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.1m). The internal bank is absent NW-NE and the monument is defined by a scarp (ext. H 0.4m). The fosse encloses the site on all sides, being best preserved NE-NW. The external earth and stone bank encloses the site E-NW with only very slight traces visible SE-NW. The original entrance is not recognisable.
