What is recorded here

On a S-facing slope in grassland. Marked on the 1945 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m), overlain by a curving field boundary from NW to SE. No visible surface trace survives. The cartographic evidence suggests that this was probably a rath similar to those c. 250m to the NW (GA107-017----) and c. 260m to the ENE (GA107-065----) respectively.
