This sub-oval earthwork measures approximately 24 metres from northeast to southwest and 22 metres from northwest to southeast, defined by a gentle scarp that rises just over half a metre in height. The scarp, which has a width of 2.6 metres, is most pronounced along the western and northern sections, gradually levelling out towards the northwest.

The site retains traces of what appears to be the original fosse, or defensive ditch, particularly visible along the western and northern perimeters. This feature has an overall width of 4.25 metres, narrowing to 0.9 metres at its base, though centuries of silting and erosion have reduced its depth to a mere 15 centimetres. The interior of the enclosed area shows an uneven surface, suggesting possible building platforms or other structural remains beneath the grass.

A modern field boundary runs northwest to southeast, just touching the southwestern edge of the monument at a tangent. Despite the encroachment of contemporary agriculture, the site remains a tangible link to medieval Ireland’s defensive architecture, when such moated sites served as fortified homesteads for Anglo-Norman settlers and wealthy Irish families alike. The location on the flood plain would have provided both fertile agricultural land and natural defence, with the River Suir offering an additional barrier to potential attackers.
