What is recorded here
In pasture, on a SSW-facing slope. A circular area (c. 40m N-S; c. 40m E-W) defined by an inner earthen bank (Wth 6.5m; int. H 0.95m; ext. H 1.25m) NW-SE and by a scarp SE-NW. An intervening fosse (Wth 1.6m) is visible NW-E. An outer bank is evident NW-E, incorporated into the field boundary system at N and ENE. The raised interior is level. There is a possible entrance through the inner bank at SE. The townland boundary, which curves to respect the rath, appears to be following the line of the intervening fosse along the W arc.
