This small fortification on a knoll was identified by RCAHMS investigators as a fort, but its is better considered a dun. Oval on plan, it measures about 24m from NNE to SSW by 14m transversely within a heavily robbed wall reduced to little more than a band of grass-grown rubble. The entrance was probably on the SW and three small platforms can be seen within the interior.
