What is recorded here
On a rise in undulating pastureland. This circular rath (diam. c. 40m), in fair condition, is defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. Both banks are clearly visible from S through W and N to E and the fosse is evident from SW through W and N to NE. A hollow in the SSW sector of the interior may mark the site of a Man-made underground passage (GA106-149001-).
