This rath, measuring approximately 25 to 30 metres in internal diameter, consists of a subcircular earthen bank that cleverly incorporates natural rock outcrops into its defensive design. The site features a fosse, or defensive ditch, running around the perimeter, with possible traces of an external bank that would have provided an additional layer of protection for those living within.

The most likely entrance to the fort appears to have been on the eastern side, where a break in the earthworks suggests a formal gateway once controlled access to the interior. Inside the enclosed space, several irregular rises in the ground hint at the locations of former structures; perhaps dwelling houses, storage buildings or workshops that once formed the heart of this small defended settlement. These internal features, though weathered by centuries, still offer tantalising clues about how the space was organised and used by its inhabitants.

Time and agricultural activity have left their mark on the monument, with later field walls cutting across portions of the original earthworks and an old trackway disturbing part of the site’s fabric. Despite these intrusions, the ringfort remains a valuable archaeological resource, representing the type of defended farmstead that once dotted the Irish landscape. These sites typically date from the early medieval period, roughly between the 5th and 12th centuries AD, when such fortified homesteads were the residences of prosperous farming families across rural Ireland.
