What is recorded here

Fortmill and Moyra share a broken circular scar on a low pasture ridge. Ploughs and time erased the outer banks, yet a steep inner scarp still rises half a metre above the grass. The lost entrance vanished, but the surviving curve suggests a place set apart for living, fearing storms or hiding from others.

On a low ridge in pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) indicates that this raised circular area (diam. c. 45m) was enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone, a wide deep intervening fosse and an outer bank. Both banks have been levelled. The rath is defined by a broad scarp (H 0.6-1.4m) The fosse has been infilled but its outline may been traced at SSW (Wth 2m; D 0.2m). The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 17 January 2012
