What is recorded here

No visible entrance, no chamber roof, no floor marker. Only a long rectangular hollow inside the rath, aligned east-west like a forgotten room. The passage may still exist beneath soil and grass, waiting for someone patient enough to listen for echo before digging.

On the summit of a hillock in undulating grassland. Circular rath (D 34m) (GA073-138----), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank survives at W and N; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. The outer bank survives intermittently and is best preserved at S. A gap (Wth 2m) at E appears original. Within the interior, a rectangular hollow (L 9m), long axis running E-W, is possibly the remains of a Man-made underground passage (GA073-138001-).
