Located on a N-facing slope, in an upland area overlooking a plain to the N. A roughly circular site (diam. 28.6m N-S; 26.5m E-W) defined by a low denuded earthen bank with some stone visible (Wth 1.7m; int. H 0.43m; ext. H 0.56m) and a shallow external fosse (Wth 2.2m; D 0.42m). There are a number of gaps in the bank due to cattle trampling, however the causeway over the fosse in the NE quadrant may be the original entrance (Stout 1984, 45).
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
