What is recorded here

On low-lying, wet ground. A raised circular area (diam. 25.9m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 4.2m; H 0.1-0.4m) with an intervening fosse (Wth 5.4m; D 0.6m), outer bank (Wth 7.2m; H 0.6m) and outer fosse (Wth 2.8m; D 0.4m). Both fosses are extremely waterlogged. The rath is divided into roughly equal portions by a modern ENE–WSW field boundary. The S half has been levelled and only its outline is identifiable. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 14 February 2012
