What is recorded here

No gate, no seam, no break in the circle. A forty-five-metre ring on an east-facing slope in Reask, County Meath, still shows through the soil as a clean circular mark, with shorter ditches touching it at east, south and northwest like abandoned rooms. People may have lived there, avoided it or simply stopped digging when the shape refused to explain itself.

Located on a slight E-facing slope. The cropmark of a circular area (diam. c. 45m) defined by a complete fosse, with a second fosse SSE-W-NE is visible on OSI aerial images (2005). There is no identifiable entrance, but elements of field drains attach to the outer fosse at E, S and NW creating annexes that do not extend far (max. L c. 40m) from the rath. It was first reported by Colin Byrne, Briarleas, Co. Meath. See the attached view from OSI images (2005) Compiled by Geraldine Stout Date of upload: 13/03/2012 Amended: 15 September 2020
