What is recorded here

On a SW-facing slope in pasture. A raised circular area (diam. c. 50m) defined by a scarp (H 0.8-1.6m). There is no trace of a fosse. A modern NE-SW field boundary divides it into two unequal portions. The smaller portion, to the SE, has been levelled and only its outline is identifiable. Most of the rest of the rath is occupied by a modern dwelling-house with outbuildings and a laneway. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
