Located towards the bottom of an E-facing slope. An oval enclosure (int. dims c. 28m ENE-WSW; c. 20m NNW-SSE) is defined by two fosses (ext. dims c. 38m ENE-WSW; c. 30m NNW-SSE) is visible only on Apple Maps which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. There is an entrance gap through the inner (Wth c. 1.5m) and outer (Wth c. 3m) fosses at ENE. The rath is overlain be the cropmarks of field drains associated with the field system (ME033-067001-). The complex was first reported by Anthony Murphy. See the attached enhanced view from Apple Maps Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 10 February 2020
