A sub-oval dun is located on a small plateau in the central part o the Isle of Lismore. It is protected by steep slopes, the easiest access is frorm the south. The outline of the wall is visible on most of the dun’s perimeter, some remains of the outer wall-face can be seen at the south. Slight remains of an entrance can be distinguished in western part of the dun.
