What is recorded here

In pasture, located on a ridge with a fall of ground to NE, with good views, especially to N–NE, over sharply undulating terrain. This possible rath is shown on the 1922 OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 30-35m). It has been levelled. The outline of a circular area (diam. c. 20-25m) is barely discernible.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record MA038-074
