What is recorded here

In pasture, located on a rise on the spine of a low E−W ridge. To N ground falls away to an area of wettish pasture, bordered by stream; there is a more gradual fall of ground to S. This possible rath is shown as a roughly circular enclosure on the 1837-8 and 1922 OS 6-inch maps; on the 1922 edition it is incorporated into a field boundary at S−WNW. It has been levelled; the outline of a slightly raised oval area (c. 23m N-S; 15m E-W) can still be traced. Remnants of a bank/scarp (int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.7; Wth slope 2.4m) remain on the NE arc, but elsewhere the circuit is evident only as a slight undulation, and is barely discernible at S. It is bisected centrally by a property wall on a ENE-WSW axis. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 13 June 2018
