Internal diameter 23.4m N-S, 24.7m E-W
Situated in poor pastureland, the surrounding land is quite marshy. Two fields to the S lies another rath (KE015-087----). This univallate rath consists of a raised circular area c .8m above the surrounding land. The cattle have much levelled the enclosing earthen bank so an external measurement is all that could be taken. The interior is at a higher level than the surrounding land. According to the landowner (O'Sullivan) several fulachta fiadh have been discovered in the vicinity of the fort and all would appear to be located near springs.
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 545. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
