Raneany East Multi-Banked Fairy Fort

Internal diam. c. 27m. A circular space surrounded by a much worn bank, a silted-up fosse, another bank and fosse in similar condition and possibly a third outer bank. The whole site is much damaged. A circular stone wall is situated at the mutilated W section of the probable outer bank. It is possibly totally modern. The site is situated lower down the S facing shoulder of the hill on which the site above (DG100-008) is located. Immediately to the S is a stream running through a deep gorge. The site is very wet.
