Why this matters
A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.
What is recorded here
In pasture, at the top of a SW-facing slope. This possible rath is not visible at ground level. It is indicated on the 1939 OS 6-inch map by a dashed curving line SSW-NE, abutting a linear NE-SW field boundary at SE, which may indicate the remains of a rath (diam. c. 35m). A Man-made underground passage (KE066-055----) lies c. 8m to the SSW.
