Why this matters

A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.

What is recorded here

On a low narrow E-W ridge, in tillage. One of three closely associated raths (along with KD032-035---- and KD032-036---- to the S) recorded on the 1st ed. (1839) of the OS 6-inch map, where it is shown as a large circular area enclosed by a bank (est. max. diam. c. 75m) and named ‘Rathglass’. Although still named ‘Rathglass’ on the latest ed. (1910) of the map, only the W-half of the monument is depicted and is shown to contain a quarry pit. In 1972, no visible surface trace survived (SMR file).
