What is recorded here
You need to be a little clever, a little quick, a little bright, a little dangerous. That is the game. Those are the rules. The chamber is not a chamber of records. It is a firing range for the muscle you keep asleep.
On the W-facing slope of a high ridge. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded a raised circular area (diam. c. 30m) enclosed from NE-ENE-E by a low bank of earth and stone. From E-S-SSW the circuit and morphology of the bank had been altered where it had been incorporated into a NE-SW field boundary. Elsewhere the defining element was a low scarp (H 0.4m). There was no trace of a fosse and the original entrance was not recognisable. The rath is densely overgrown with scrub rendering inspection impossible.
