Indicated

In average coastal pasture, located on a low elevation overlooking Killala Bay to E, and with good views over rolling fields to S and W. Slightly raised circular area (17.4m N-S; 16.6m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2.7m at NNE; 4.4m at SW; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.6m at NNE, 1.4m at SW). The bank is generally low and degraded, with stones protruding randomly on top along the W half. It is broadly slumped at SW. Where sections of the bank have been eroded by farm stock, its core is revealed to be composed of hard-packed stony sandy soil. There is no clearly defined entrance feature. The interior appears to be slightly higher in the W third, but is generally level and featureless. Remnants of levelled field fences can be seen abutting the bank at S and NE. A N−S road lies 3m W of the rath. There is a possible rath (MA015-074----) c. 200m to SW. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 13 November 2018
