What is recorded here
According to O'Kelly (1969, 5) in his description of monuments in the townland of Rathealy he mentions the, 'fine rath [KK013-059001-] is now under the care of the National Monuments Commissioners. There is a small double rath [KK013-058----] three fields westwards and three more further south-west [KK013-073----- and KK013-074-----]'. Of the three further SW, only two are indicated on the 6-inch OS maps. The description of a third enclosure in this vicinity may be an error by O'Kelly (three rather than two), or there may be a third enclosure which is not depicted on the 6-inch OS maps and which is currently unlocated.
