What is recorded here
Belview holds one of three small structures inside a rath, reducing human ambition to a four-metre square of moss-covered stones. The western and northern walls still stand while the eastern edge has surrendered half its length to time. That much remains for measurement, but the chamber itself has vanished into the green dark.
One of three structures (see also GA100-037001- and GA100-037003-) located within the centre of the interior of a rath (GA100-037----). Only the last vestiges of this roughly square structure (4.3m N-S; 4.3m E-W) survive. It is defined by moss-covered stones. Only the W and N sides survive as well as the N end of the E side (L 2m). This structure is c. 2.7m to the S of GA100-037001-.
