Hartnett (1939, 98) describes interior (overall diameter 200ft) enclosed by earthen bank 'with a good proportion of large stone' and 'shallow outer fosse'; 'open drain' crosses sites 'at the S.E.'; S of this, 'rampart erased but is still traceable'.

• CO060-151002 Souterrain
  Description

  In levelled ringfort (CO060-151001-). Coleman (1945, 112-3), described an entrance in N portion of ringfort with 'series of hollows on a line curving SE and E apparently marking a sunken trench entrance to the actual mouth of the souterrain'. He noted 'debris slope' leading into passage (long axis N-S; L 10ft), upper levels of walls stone-built atop earth-cut base, roofed with slabs; earth-cut creephole (H 1ft 8in; Wth 1ft 7in) at N end. This leads to second passage similar to first (long axis N-S; L c. 6ft). Passage opens into stone-built elliptical chamber (max. H 4ft 3in; Wth 4ft; long axis NE-SW) roofed with slabs. Small lintelled creephole at NE end leads to circular earth-cut chamber (H 3ft 4in). McCarthy (1977, 198) noted that second passage was destroyed by bulldozer in May 1959. No visible surface trace.
