The circular monument consists of a raised interior area measuring 7.5 metres in diameter, surrounded by a fosse (a defensive ditch) and an outer earthen bank. Whilst a formal causeway entrance can still be identified on the western side, the bank has suffered numerous modern breaches over the centuries, giving the site a somewhat fragmented appearance today.

The interior of the ring-barrow presents an notably uneven surface, suggesting either deliberate construction techniques or subsequent disturbance through the ages. Its positioning is particularly interesting; it sits east of another archaeological feature (catalogued as DG107-095) along the same ridge, indicating this elevated landform held special significance for ancient communities. Such paired monuments often suggest the area served as an important ritual or burial landscape.

Ring-barrows like this one typically date from the Bronze Age through to the Iron Age and were often used for burial purposes, though their exact function could vary between ceremonial, funerary, and territorial marking. The site was documented as part of the comprehensive Archaeological Survey of County Donegal, compiled by Brian Lacey and his team in 1983, which catalogued field antiquities from the Mesolithic period through to the 17th century. This particular monument stands as a testament to the rich archaeological heritage scattered across Donegal’s landscape, quietly marking a spot that held meaning for people thousands of years ago.
