What is recorded here
Forty-one metres of hidden architecture still stands in Tully pasture, its earth bank and outer ditch partly swallowed by modern field boundaries. The entrance has vanished, but the circular shape remains clear enough to walk around and imagine the lives that turned it into a home. A large quarry hole sits just outside the south edge, waiting for someone to ask what was taken from the fort and where it went.
In rolling pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 41.2m) enclosed by a bank of earth and stone and an external fosse, which have been modified and incorporated into a field boundary from S-W-NW. Elsewhere the bank and fosse have been levelled but their outlines are still identifiable. The original entrance is not recognisable. At S, immediately outside the rath, is a substantial quarry hole.
