The site measures approximately 34 metres in internal diameter and forms a roughly circular enclosure, though its outline is now only partially visible where the hillcrest has been levelled. What remains tells the story of a defended homestead that would have housed an extended family group, their livestock, and storage buildings during the early medieval period, roughly between 500 and 1170 AD.

The most prominent surviving feature is an earthen bank on the western side, standing about 40 centimetres high; a modest reminder of what would once have been a more substantial defensive perimeter. The original bank would have been topped with a wooden palisade, creating a formidable barrier against both wild animals and potential raiders. Today, the site has been altered by more recent agricultural activity, with a field fence running north to south through the middle of the fort and various other modern disturbances affecting its archaeological integrity.

The location itself speaks to the practical considerations of its original inhabitants. The ridge position provided good drainage and visibility across the surrounding landscape, whilst the proximity to the Ominey river ensured a reliable water source. The fairly good quality pasture land that surrounds the site today would have been equally valuable to its medieval occupants, who relied on a mixed economy of cattle rearing and crop cultivation. Like thousands of similar sites scattered across the Irish countryside, this ringfort offers a tangible connection to the rural communities who shaped the landscape of medieval Ireland.
