Rath (RO016-063----) is c. 170m to the S, and barrow (RO016-060----) is c. 140m to the E. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
Embanked enclosure; date uncertain but likely Late Bronze Age or Early Iron Age. Its association with nearby rath and barrow suggests a ceremonial or defensive function in a broader funerary or settlement landscape.
