What is recorded here
On a gentle SW-facing slope in undulating pastureland. Poorly preserved circular rath (diam.
43.7m) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank and fosse are best preserved from SW to NW; elsewhere the bank has been levelled and pushed into the fosse, however, its line is indicated by a low scarp. The outer bank survives at S and from SW to NW. No visible surface trace survives of the stone-facing noted by McCaffrey (1952, 139-40, no. 35). (Athy 1914, 134)
