What is recorded here

On a hummock in grassland. This poorly preserved subcircular enclosure (40.8m N-S; 38.7m E-W), defined by a scarp (H 0.55-0.9m), is visible midway around the hummock. The interior rises up towards the centre and traces of E-W running cultivation ridges are evident. The siting would be suitable for a rath but it may be a later enclosure.
