This small fort occupies a rocky knoll forming a promontory on the W side of the mouth of the Laggan River. Oval on plan, the wall can be traced cutting over the crest of the hillock on the N and returning along the flank facing the river on the E to enclose an area measuring about 51m from N to S by 23m transversely (0.09ha). The wall is spread up to 4.5m in breadth by 1.2m in external height where it crosses the neck of the promontory on the N; there are short runs of outer facing stones on the NW and on the E. The entrance is on the N. The only features visible within the interior are a later pen on the E and a band of rubble towards the S, though the date and original purpose of the latter are unknown.
