What is recorded here

At the W end of an E-W ridge and partly formed by scarping of that ridge, in rolling grassland, with small patches of bog to N and W. Ringfort consists of a roughly circular area (diam. 37m N-S; 35m E-W) enclosed by a slight bank (Wth c. 2m; int. H 0.25m; ext. H 1.2m) in the S quadrant and by a scarped edge (H 1.2m) elsewhere. An external fosse (Wth 1.7m; D 0.3m) is visible from SE-S-SW. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 17 January 2018
