In pasture, on a S-facing slope. An arc (c. 22m E-W) of an earthen bank (Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 1.95m) is evident E-W, incorporated into the field boundary system. This appears to be the S half of a rath indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m). The interior is obscured by impenetrable briars. The S portion of the interior is raised (H 1.65m) to compensate for the hillslope. Two other raths (KE057-044----, KE057-046----) lie c. 80m to the SW and c. 150m to the ESE, respectively.
