In pasture, on top of a ridge. A raised oval area (23m N-S; 27m E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 2m; int. H 0.9m; ext. H 0.3m) with numerous gaps and some upright stones along the inner face. There is a possible entrance (Wth 1m) at NE where the enclosing earthen bank along the E arc extends outwards towards the N. The line of an external fosse is indicated as a band (Wth 2m) of irises. Field boundaries (on a NW-SE axis) are adjacent to the NE and SW arcs. There is another rath (SL034-108001-) c. 10m to the NW with a passage tomb (SL034-109----) in between.
