Indicated

In an area of undulating average pasture, located on a rise, which provides excellent views, restricted now to E by a farmstead. There is a spring well c. 100m to NW. Roughly circular, raised area (diam. 31.6m NW-SE) defined at SE−WNW by an earthen bank (W 2.4m; ext. H 0.7m) with a low internal lip, and at NW-NE by a substantial scarp (H 2m). The bank is truncated at E by N−S field wall, and the scarp has been modified or truncated at N by a later E−W field fence, which borders a road. A section of the scarp (H 1.5) at NW was recut during construction of a farm track. The interior is level. There is a local tradition that there is a Man-made underground passage (MA031-046001-) in the E half. A roughly D-shaped terrace (14.5m NW-SE; 10.7m NE-SW), defined by a scarp (H 0.6m) with a low internal lip, abuts the SW side of the rath, and is at a slightly lower level to it. Long grass in interior; brambles and hawthorn on bank. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 19 June 2018
