Roughly circular platform (37.8m N−S; 42.6m E−W) defined by a bank/scarp. The bank/scarp is modified to serve as a field fence for much of the circuit: at NE−S it consists of an earth and stone bank (Wth 2.9m; int. H 0.9m; ext. 1.7m, at E), at S−W a scarp (Wth 1m) topped with a post and wire fence, and at W−N the scarp has been cut to the vertical (H 2.2m at NNW, 1m at N). The interior is flat, grassy and featureless; the perimeter is ringed with hawthorn and ash trees. The garden of a modern house lies a few meters N of the rath. There is a rath (MA071-111----) 220m to NE. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 19 August 2021
