What is recorded here

At the N-facing crest of a broad E-W ridge. Described in 1979 as a D-shaped area (dims 28m N-S; 27m E-W) defined by scarps (H 1.5m at N) with traces of a bank E-S-W, probably upcast from quarries, but with no visible fosse or entrance (SMR file). It is now visible as an oval area (dims c. 31m NE-SW; c. 26m NW-SE) defined by an interrupted band of lush vegetation (Wth 3m at NW to 7m at S). It is within field system (RO022-102002-) and rath (RO028-007-) is c. 170m to the SE. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
