What is recorded here

On a W-facing slope in rough pasture and karst limestone within a large multiperiod field system (CL009-059001-). Indicated on the 1897 OS 25-inch plan and 1920 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. This small circular cashel (21.7m N-S; 20.9m E-W) is defined by a double-faced wall (Wth 1m at W; H c. 0.5-0.7m) and associated stone tumble (total Wth 3-4.3m). Grass-covered field walls abut the cashel at the E and SW. There is a gap (Wth 4.5m) in the wall at WNW-NW, which probably post-dates the original occupation of the cashel. Outside this gap is a later small rectangular enclosure (c. 8m NW-SE; c. 6m NE-SW). There is an enclosure (CL009-246----) c. 94m to the SE.
