What is recorded here
On a rise in undulating scrubland. Poorly preserved subcircular rath (c. 41m E-W; c. 39m N-S) defined by an earthen bank and external fosse; the latter is visible from N through E to SW. Traces of internal stone-facing are visible on the bank from N through E to S. Numerous gaps appear to be modern. The interior is densely planted with fir trees.
