What is recorded here

On a gentle SW-facing slope in pasture. Not marked on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded that the outline of a levelled circular enclosure (diam. c. 28m) could be traced. The SE half of the monument has since been destroyed due to the construction of a NE-SW laneway and field boundary. No visible surface trace of the NW half survives; it has been planted with coniferous trees. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
