What is recorded here

Located on a slight E-facing slope. The cropmark of a circular area (diam. c. 45m) defined by a complete fosse, with a second fosse SSE-W-NE is visible on OSI aerial images (2005). There is no identifiable entrance, but elements of field drains attach to the outer fosse at E, S and NW creating annexes that do not extend far (max. L c. 40m) from the rath. It was first reported by Colin Byrne, Briarleas, Co. Meath. See the attached view from OSI images (2005) Compiled by Geraldine Stout Date of upload: 13/03/2012 Amended: 15 September 2020
