What is recorded here

Killasona holds a broken earthen ring where a road now cuts through the middle. The remaining banks and deep ditch mark a large enclosed space on a pasture slope, but the entrance and original shape have faded under field work and traffic. It is not a polished monument; it is a lived-in landscape where human hands kept changing the boundary long after the first builder left it behind.

On a NE-facing slope in pasture. A raised circular area (diam. c. 46m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 4.7m; H 0.1-0.6m), a wide deep intervening fosse (Wth 6.8m; D 1.4m) from W-NW-N and an outer bank (Wth 4-3.8m; H 0.5m). The inner bank has been modified and incorporated into a field boundary from SW-WSW and has been largely levelled at NW and at N. The rath is divided into unequal portions by a modern NE-SW roadway. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 16 January 2012
