What is recorded here

Carrowbaun holds a ruined circular rath, thirty-four metres across, where a field wall now cuts through the ancient earth. Inside lie flat limestone stones that may be roof lintels for a hidden passage or mere bedrock, leaving the true shape of the place in shadow. The fort has surrendered much of its form to time and farming, yet it still marks the boundary between human memory and forgotten making.

Some 150m to the SW of a cashel (GA097-063----). Poorly preserved circular rath (diam. 34m) defined by a scarp. A field wall cuts through the monument at NE and SE and no visible surface trace of the enclosing element survives to the E of it. Some exposed limestone flagstones within the interior may be the roof lintels of a possible Man-made underground passage (GA097-064001-) or else natural bedrock.
