What is recorded here

In wet pasture, on a NE-facing slope, on the E side of a tributary of the Tralia River. A semicircular arc (C 30m) of a low bank (Wth 4.8m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.2m) is evident NNW-S and may be the remains of the E half of a rath. On the 1894 OS 6-inch map the arc of bank is indicated NNW-SSW.
