What is recorded here

On a prominent hillock in pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 30.9m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 4.9m; H 0.3-0.8m), which has been modified and incorporated into a field boundary from ESE-S-SW. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded fragmentary traces of an external fosse, which are no longer visible. The original entrance is not recognisable. The rath is densely overgrown with vegetation rendering satisfactory inspection impossible. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 29 November 2011
