Situated on a natural hillock, surrounded by gently undulating land with good views to the N, E and SE. The E shoreline of Lough Owel lies 225m to SW. Roughly circular-shaped area (approx. diam. 45m NE-SW ) enclosed by an earth and stone bank mainly reduced to a scarp with slight remains of an external fosse best preserved at N. No clear entrance feature visible, the bank has several gaps all of which to be modern. The outer face of the bank has been modified from ESE-SE-SSE to form a post 1700 field boundary. The interior slopes quite steeply from NNW-SSE, traces of cultivation ridges are visible running E-W across the interior.
