What is recorded here

Towards the bottom of a SE-facing slope. Circular overgrown area (int. diam. 24m NNW-SSE) defined by a stone spread (Wth 2-2.6m; H 0.2-0.4m) with some facing stones. There is a tradition of use as a children's burial ground (RO021-006002-) (Gannon 1972) but there is no evidence of burial. It is situated in the N interior of rath (RO021-006003-) with a relict field wall running S from the perimeter to the edge of the rath. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
