On a low rise in pasture. Not indicated on any OS 6-inch map but a kink in a field boundary on the 1914 ed. may mirror the outline of its NNW sector. This rath has been largely levelled. Extant remains comprise a raised subcircular area (34m E-W; 31m N-S) defined from E-S-W by a low scarp (H 0.5-0.7m).
