What is recorded here
In undulating grassland. Marked on the OS 6-inch maps as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 34m). When initially visited by the Survey in April 1983 all that survived of this rath was a platform curving from E through S to SW. On re-inspection in March 1987 no visible surface trace survived; it had been levelled as a result of field-reclamation works. However, its outline is visible on the OSi digitalglobe aerial photograph (Google 2018). A field system (GA099-174002-) may be associated.
