What is recorded here

On an E-facing slope in undulating pastureland. Very poorly preserved circular rath (diam. 37m) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The fosse and outer bank survive from NE to SSW. A possible entrance gap (Wth 4.5m) is evident at E. A field wall cuts the monument at NW and NE; another runs outside the inner bank at W.
