What is recorded here

In pasture, on a SSW-facing slope. This possible rath is not visible at ground level. It is indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure and on the 1939 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) incorporated into the field boundary system SW-NE. A circular area defined by a wide grass-covered bank with a possible entrance at E is visible in an aerial photograph (ACAP, V 164/43). The general area is now occupied by a housing development.
