What is recorded here

In pasture, on the summit of a low hill, overlooking the valley of the Glanooragh River to the S. The rath is indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m). A roughly circular level area (c. 42m N-S) is evident defined by a slight trace of a bank NW-NE and by a natural fall of ground along the S arc. Another rath (KE058-062----) lies c. 150m to the SSE.
