Earthwork in Rathmaiden

Marked as an irregularly shaped, hachured feature (dims. c. 50m E-W; c. 25m N-S) backing onto an E-W field bank at N only on the 1926 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated in pasture at the crest of the SE-facing slope of a small NW-SE valley. It is not visible at ground level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 23 July 2010.
