What is recorded here
In pasture, located on the top of the higher E end of an E−W ridge, with excellent views.
This enclosure, possibly a rath, is shown on the 1837 and 1919 OS 6-inch maps as a sub-circular enclosure (diam. 25m). There is no visible trace at ground level. The ridge slope has been quarried out immediately to the S of the location of the enclosure. A rath (MA062-063----) is located 75m to W on the same ridge top.
