What is recorded here
No visible gate, no central hut, no hearth mark. The wall leans inward like a breath held too long. A small cashel sits twenty metres southeast, and two enclosures wait sixty metres north. The ridge holds more than one life, yet none of them can be named.
On an elevated ridge of rough pasture in a multiperiod field system (CL005-115001-) with views from NE to NW. A poorly preserved, roughly circular cashel (int. dims. 21m E-W; 19.5m N-S) defined by a low internally and externally faced wall (Wth 1.6-1.75m; max. H 0.4-0.55m) and stone spread (Wth 3-4.5m). A cairn (CL005-114003-) is located NE of centre. Another cashel is located c. 20m to the SE (CL005-114001-) and a pair of enclosures lie c. 60m to the N (CL005-202001- and CL005-202002-).
