What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on top of a knoll, with views restricted by a deciduous wood. In the 1990s a fort was recorded near Mrs Margaret O'Donoghue's house (CPCK 2002, vol. 4). This possible rath has been levelled but the summit of the knoll is level and roughly oval (c. 30m N-S; c. 20m E-W). It is covered by dense overgrowth.
