This roughly rectangular earthwork measures about 60 metres from north to south and just under 52 metres from east to west, enclosed by an earthen bank that rises to different heights depending on where you stand. On the inside, the bank reaches about 30 centimetres high, whilst the exterior face stands at 70 centimetres, best preserved along the northern section where it transitions to a more scarp-like formation towards the southeast.

The site’s defensive features include an external fosse, or ditch, running from the southwest to the west side, though time has reduced it to a modest 15 centimetres deep and just over a metre wide. A curious feature runs along the inner base of the bank from southwest to northwest; a low raised lip about 4 metres wide, defined by a scarp edge nearly 30 centimetres high, which may have served as an additional defensive element or platform for structures long since vanished.

Today, the interior lies under pasture, its uneven surface dipping noticeably towards the northeast quadrant, suggesting either natural subsidence or the remnants of internal structures. A small heap of earth and stones in the southeast quadrant hints at past clearance work, perhaps from agricultural use or archaeological investigation. These moated sites, common across medieval Ireland, typically marked the homes of Anglo-Norman settlers or prosperous Gaelic families, combining practical defence with a statement of status in the rural landscape.
