What is recorded here

On a hummock in undulating grassland. Poorly preserved subcircular rath (39m NW-SE; 36.2m NE-SW) defined by a bank and shallow external fosse. The bank survives from S through N to ENE; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. A souterrain (GA098-070002-) and children’s burial ground (GA098-070001-) are associated.
