What is recorded here

On a gentle N-facing slope in pastureland. Poorly preserved subcircular rath (33m E-W; 30m N-S) defined by a grassed-over bank of earth and stone (Wth 3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.3m). A gap (Wth 3m) at ENE may be original. Traces of a rectangular enclosure (12m E-W; 9m N-S) defined by a low bank, abutting the monument at S, may be an associated annexe.
