What is recorded here

Half a kilometre from another rath, this broken ring clings to a drumlin slope where a field drain cut through its eastern edge. People built a shallow bank and dug a ditch around a space wide enough for a few houses, then left it to grass and forget. The fairies may have taken the rest, but humans made the shape first.

Situated on the N-facing slope of a drumlin. This is an overgrown D-shaped area (int. dims c. 25m N-S; c. 20m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (at SW: Wth of base 5.8m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 1m) and an external fosse (at SW: Wth of top 4.8m; Wth of base 2m; ext. D 0.7m) SSE-W-NNE. The monument is truncated by a N-S field bank and drain at E, and does not survive visibly E of this feature. Rath (LE032-033----) is c. 75m to the SSW.
