This is one of three raths (see KE058-005----, KE058-006----) mentioned in the 1840s as being in Lisheennacannina (OSNB, Molahiffe, no. 1, 24). One of these was called 'Lissacannina' and was described as 'remarkably large' and 'nearly defaced' and had a 'cavern' in it (OSNB, Molahiffe, no. 1, 42). The other two raths were 'not known by any particular name' (OSNB, Molahiffe, no. 1, 24). This possible rath has not been precisely located.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
