What is recorded here
Situated on a S-facing terrace close to the base of a low NW-SE ridge. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 32m) enclosed by a substantial bank (Wth 4.9-5.5m; int. H 0.8-1.4m; ext. H 1.1m at N, 2m at S). The S half of the enclosure has been built up to compensate for the natural S-facing slope and create a relatively level interior. A break (Wth c. 2m) in the bank at ESE may represent the original entrance. There is another rath (SL016-052----) c. 60m to NNW.
