Univallate rath KE036-043 with souterrain KE036-043001- is situated on the E slopes of Corrin mountain near the entrance to the valley of the Finglas river.
An oval, stone-lined hollow is located a little W of centre in the interior. It measures 2m x 3.5m c. 1m deep and is open to E. Three capstones of a souterrain are exposed 2m to NNW of the latter feature. The passage thus indicated is c. 0.75m wide and runs NNW-SSE for c. 3m. Three large boulders, visible on the outer face of the bank due S of the latter, may be related to a continuation of the souterrain.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 358. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
