In reclaimed pasture at the E end of a ridge named Knockacarn, with wide views from NE to SW. Hachured on the 1897 OS 25-inch plan and 1920 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Listed as ‘Enclosure’ in the RMP (1996). This circular rath (int. dims. 28.4m N-S; 27.3m E-W; ext. dims. 50m E-W; 35.5m N-S) is defined by two low scarps (H 0.2m each) with an intervening berm (Wth 3-4m). There are traces of a possible outer fosse at between E and SE. A later field wall overlies the inner scarp from WNW to ENE. A field bank and ditches cut the enclosing elements from SW to W. Another rath (CL009-099002-) and cairn (CL009-099001-) lie c. 30m and c. 80m to the W respectively.
