What is recorded here

Clearwood bypassed the fort and covered every field within sight. Rath and the forgotten names lived behind that choice. You can still measure the boundary because human hands drew it twice: once to exclude Clearwood and once to remember the place it swallowed.

Situated at the crest of the E-facing slope of a drumlin. This is a grass and scrub-covered circular area (int. diam. 33m E-W; 31m N-S), which remains unplanted in a coniferous forest. It is defined by a stone-faced scarp (max. H 1.4m) surmounted by field walls W-N-S. Rath (LE015-152---) is c. 20m to W. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
