What is recorded here

In pasture, on a low rise, on an E-facing slope. The remains of the possible rath are visible as a low intermittent rise defining a circular area (diam. c. 38m) abutting a field boundary on the NE side. It is indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as an oval area (c. 50m N-S; c. 40m E-W) with an E-W field boundary crossing the N portion of the interior.
