A ringfort, sometimes called a rath, is a roughly circular enclosed settlement from early medieval Ireland, typically defined by one or more earthen banks and used as a farmstead or place of refuge. Here, the western half has been levelled entirely, absorbed into the working landscape of the surrounding fields, leaving behind what reads today as a lopsided, sub-rectangular enclosure on a south-facing slope.

The 1923 Ordnance Survey map recorded the site as a D-shaped enclosure, its straight western edge formed by a north-south field boundary and its curved eastern arc traced by an earthen bank. That depiction already hinted at loss, but it preserved a clearer picture than the ground now offers. Surveyed and compiled by Denis Power, with details uploaded in June 2013, the site measures approximately 47 metres north to south and 19 metres east to west. The enclosing bank, built of earth and stone, survives in its most complete form in the north, where it reaches an internal height of 1.2 metres and an external height of 1.5 metres. To the east and south, a scarped edge, essentially a cut or stepped drop in the ground surface, takes over from the bank proper, standing around 0.8 metres high and spreading more than ten metres wide. At the south-east there is a gap of roughly 1.6 metres in the enclosing elements, which may mark the original entrance. In the north-east corner of the interior, grassed-over mounds of topsoil sit up against the bank, suggesting either past disturbance or material cleared and heaped at some point.

The interior surface slopes gently southward and is otherwise relatively even underfoot. The site sits immediately east and south of a field boundary, and that boundary still forms the western edge of the enclosure, just as it did when the western bank was removed. There is no formal access or visitor infrastructure, so approaching across farmland requires consideration for whoever works the land. The bank is clearest from the north, where height and width are best preserved, and the possible entrance gap at the south-east is worth examining closely for any trace of the original threshold.
