What is recorded here

On a steep-sided rise in pasture. A raised oval area (37m N-S; 27m E-W) defined by a scarp (H 1.7-2.75m). At the base of the scarp is a low berm (Wth 2-3m) that marks the outline of an infilled fosse. The original entrance is not recognisable. The rath is divided into roughly equal portions by a NE-SW field boundary, which marks the boundary between the two townlands. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 16 January 2012
