What is recorded here
No wall or ditch marks the ground now, yet the 1839 survey still drew a fifty-five metre circle on the Kildare slope. That faint line preserved a boundary already fading from human memory. The earth has taken back the stone, but the drawing keeps the shape alive.
On a gentle N-facing pasture slope. One of three closely associated raths (along with KD032-035---- and KD032-034---- to the NNE) recorded on the 1st ed. (1839) of the OS 6-inch map, where it is shown as a dashed circular area (est. max. diam. c. 55m) and named ‘Site of Rath’. No visible surface trace survives.
