Situated on level ground in gently undulating, generally S-facing, pasture. Circular area (diam. 32m) defined by a drystone rubble limestone wall (Wth 1m; H 0.4-1.8m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. The cashel is un-coursed with larger boulders at the base and is highest SSE-NW. A NNE-WSW orientated drystone field wall crosses the E side of the site intersecting with the edge of the site at NE and at SSE. The cashel wall is absent NE-SSE and the site is defined by a very slight scarp. The original entrance is not recognisable. There is a modern break (Wth 2m) in the cashel wall at NNE.

The wall appears to have been entirely rebuilt as part of a field wall NNW-NE (Wth 1.2m; H 1.4). A roughly rectangular sheep pen (dims. 5m NE-SW; 2m NW-SE) extends into the interior at NW. Two other sheep pens have been built against the external face of the cashel wall at SSE. The original entrance is not recognisable. The SE quadrant of the interior is enclosed by a gently curving collapsed drystone wall (Wth 3.4m; H 0.4) that links to the interior of the cashel wall at ENE and at S. A collapsed drystone wall (Wth 3.1m; H 0.3) extends W from the internal side of the cashel wall at NE and ends to N of centre. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 21 April 2011

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
