What is recorded here

Situated on a low rise in lowlying pasture, c. 50m S of a rocky shoreline. Raised circular area (diam. 46.7m NW-SE) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank (Wth. 4.6m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H, at NW) which is best preserved on the N half of the rath. Original entrance may have been at W where there is a wide break (Wth. 3.4m) in the bank, which is partially blocked by a modern N-S field boundary. Compiled by: Patrick F.
